Default SC Part Needed

I posted on the supermodel website also, but I'm trying to install my twin screw sc and I'm missing the bracket that mounts onto the inlet side of the throttle body allowing the rubber boot to join it to the MAF Anyone know where I can find one?

Darrien if you can post a pic of the part it would help...im sure you got a pic or 2...or 3... of Dereks set up.

Im still pretty about what you received relating to the content of the "kit". Why the person who sold it to you would keep that part and others is beyond me? Unless it wasnt included in the orignal sale to them? Either way thats par for the course.

I found the TB so we can make one if need be.

You're talking about the adapter tube that bolts to the throttle body base so it will accept the boot. I could be wrong, but I believe this was a custom piece Andy made for the kit. In my case, it came already sealed and bolted to the 85 throttle body as part of the kit. Contact Andy. Of course, you have THE MAN Tony helping you, so I expect he will fabricate a super alternative.

The part on the right-hand side? Yes I have it and won't be needing it any longer. Send me a PM with your address again and I will get this in the mail to you!

Anybody else needs anything from my old supermodel kit (provided it survived the fire let me know in the next day or so because I am flying North on Saturday.

yup, thats it Bill and Shane. I have an extra TB and Darrien has access to...well..some pretty good fabrication resources so Im sure he can get one made if need be...but i think that will buff out. Sure wish the rest of your car would be so easy Shane .
Andy is no longer giving any support to Darrien as he found out Im helping him.
Nice huh.

ive got the 3.5" pipe if you need it also Darrien.

Below is the TB and a part of a card mock up i had hot glued to it.

Nope. I had an ailment the really slowed my *** down as far as wrenching and fabricating. It was a no go to get it done prior to leaving for Sharktoberfest. Maybe later, hell maybe later there will be new developments and I won't have to fabricate, just open the wallet.

Darien that part went out today USPS priority. Maybe you'll get it by this weekend.

If any of you guys with a supermodel kit needs an intercooler let me know.

Most of the kit itself survived, just the electrical and hoses, even the whipple survived.
