Default Flappy Spring and Washers - Part numbers anyone??

I am trying to find the part number for the spring and two plastic washers used on the shaft for the flappy valve on the 87+ cars.
Can't find anything at all and as a last resort turn to the real experts.
Anyone know? Or are they only obtainable with the manifold?
Thanks,
Roger

Roger-

I'm afraid I don't know the answer to your question but I wonder Mike Simard (haven't seen him 'round the board lately) could cut you some washers out of delrin?

Off topic, there are lots of intake parts that aren't in PET, especially the TB. I wonder whether your search could be expanded to include whatever o-rings are present on the throttle body shaft as well- I've been watching Mike Frye's '85/86 TB o-ring discussion and wonder whether this is relevant to the 87+ cars, partly from a vacuum leak consideration, and partly from a sluggish/heavy throttle action concern (not the pedal, not the cable adjustment, not the cable pulley, though there's a bearing there too....)

The guts of the flappy are not in PET.

However, those are very interesting part numbers Bern. But, also not in PET.

Who's going to order them and find out?

Did someone powder coat an intake without removing the flappy guts?

That is really strange his post vanished.
Maybe he is the Porsche parts fairy and once the parts arrive everything will go "pooooof".
