it's 3" dia. at the TB and MAF ends...

so you'd need intake tubing/pipe that has a 3" ID...

Lew, did the place you got the 3.5 stuff from have 3"? I was wondering if the 3" is the inside or outside tube measurement and if it’s the outside, would it stretch enough to fit.

No sir, not me.

I leave that up to the women in my life. They seem to be genetically superior at that task along with years and years and years of practice. I was just giving a friendly tip.
