<x-charset iso-8859-1>These flexible tubes are readily available at any auto parts store. They are 2" dia. and about two buck for more than enough for both sides. The connection selves are a bit of a hassle and the headers are fun to twist around. Get four worm gear type clamps to connect to the sleeves. Good luck.

The car has an aftermarket header on it, with the heat exchangers installed. 1. Can the top inlet to the hot air mixer be blocked off, as I don't have the rear heat exchangers nor elbow peices, and if it is, what will it hurt? 2. I'm missing (actually it fell apart) one flexible pipe (thats what the Elfrink calls it, #5, page 59, exploded view of exhaust and heater assemblies). I suppose they are as rare as hens' teeth, or is something that works available? 3. The fresh air pipe, the hard tube from the rear to the front, if it is not in use, can I remove it without messing up the flow of cooling air through the tins. It is rattling it's little a## off ;-) Ok, thats enough for now.
