New MAP sensor gasket

I bought this car with a FAST 90/90.

I just removed the GM MAP and the orange rubber gasket is shot. This must have been causing problems.

Is there a better replacment rubber gromet out there or should I just go to the parts store and then the dealer?

GM sells it attached to the sensor. Best bet is a junkyard. Most new MAP sensors use the same grommet, steal one from them

Even worse GM says it is part of the intake manifold! Would I truck manifold have a usable gasket?

I guess I can go see in the bonyard tomorrow.

Look on Fleabay, you can buy a new map with the gasket under 20 dollars.

Yes a truck intake will use the gasket. Econo V6's in the JY will be quite a bit easier to come by and most have the new MAP sensors which use that grommet
