Just getting ready to start collecting parts for my A2A and was wondering where you get the elbow that goes from oval to round for the TB to IC piping?

You may be able to check out some Fbody forums & get one used, Vortech makes them for the LT1's.

RPM has one that they offer with their A2A kit. Mike may be selling it seperately.

That reminds me, I need to figure out what parts of my A2A i'm going to keep and sell the rest...

LS1's have a round opening and ours is circular. But thanks for the info everyone.

Did you ever find the oval to round piping or silicone hose to use?

Sure is alot cheaper than the crap ive been buying at autozone (looks alot better to).

I picked up some 4mm and 6mm red vac lines from Baker like a year or so ago which I redid my entire vac setup with and they were really nice.. thick as hell to and are real colorful when cleaned

Whats the problem with running a 4"-3" silicone reducer? The 4" part should squeeze down to oval and leave the 3" portion circular... Thats what I plan to do?.?.?

Those look familiar. That's one of the pics from the Summit pages referred to earlier in this thread.

My plan has failed. When you squeeze the 4" down to oval, the 3" portion ovals out so much that you cant get a round pipe in there... Damnit. Now I have to fabricate something fancy... The rest of my A/A IC setup is lookin pretty OG though... pics forthcoming.

Not sure what one you got, but I have a 3" to 4" coupler here that worked fine. I know some of the rpm intercooler kits came that way also.
