Default What are you guys using to from z06 MAF to a 90mm TB?

I found this:
http://intakehoses.com/Merchant2/mer...gory_Code=RSS1
but I think I'd need a hump hose for a little more length and movement.
Any help would be appreciated.

Best I can figure by measuring, I would need to go from about 4" to about 3.75". I can't seem to find that size anywhere.

I think I'd need a hump hose as pictured below because of the angle. I've seen a few pics of the hoses without humps in them not keeping their shape. Crushing for example. I just don't see one anywhere that is 3.75" on one end and 4" on the other. Straight hoses are everywhere in that size.

The best you will do with a hump is 3.5 to 4.

I had a hell of time finding a 3.75 diameter 90 degree coupler.

This is what I've come up with:
this is a reducer from 4" to 3.75" and should fit on the z06 MAF


And this is the hump hose that's 4" on each side...this should work on the 90mm throttle body:


Any thoughts on rubber being better than silicone or is it the other way around?

Just wanted to say Hi! I'm new to the sight. I have been checking out your header build project. You have encouraged me to try building my own headers. I am building a 67 chevy II and incorporating a Ls2 and t56 tranny. Keep the pics coming. Thanks Jamie.

Check out Race Part Solutions for all kinds of hoses and couplers. They have a great selection of parts for pretty much any need....

I've always preferred silicon to rubber. More durable and contains higher pressure than rubber...and comes in colors

Same here. It took a little bit of streaching for the 1st time, but its all good now, and looks stock.

Would this be what you are looking for? If this would help you any, it's for sale. Everything is new except for the MAF,and I also have some 90* elbows that have been shortened up some, and some more stainless clamps and some short pieces of metal tubing that are'nt in the pictures. I was trying to use this to get the FI to work on my '34 coupe, but I wound up going to a carb setup because of not enough room. If anybody is interested, I'll take $125.00 for everything in pics plus whatever else I've got, SHIPPED to lower 48. Ron
