Default SLP LS6 EGR hookup help

Hey everyone. I recently purchased an SLP intake from a board member here and the main nut that is a compression fitting is welded shut and two Ferrules are missing.

It looks like the main body is OK, but I need a new swagelock front and back ferrule along with a new Swagelock nut. FYI it is 1/2'' pipe thread with a hole the size of an EGR tube. Anyone have one or know where to get one.


If anyone is confused here is the instructions and it has the breakdown of all the parts.

SLP intake instructions


The local hardware stores don't seem to have anything this big.


Thanks



Chris

This is where we order all our Swagelok fittings for work (work in an atmospheric research lab):

San Diego Valve & Fitting Co 1295 Morena Blvd (619) 276-1122

I am sure there are cheaper places but I am sure they could get you what you need.

Look in the phone book under valves and fittings and I am sure there is a local Swagelok dealer to you.. it's pretty common stuff. Swagelok fittings won't work with normal NPT stuff btw.
