Does anyone know if the vac fittings are still available from Mopar? I'm down to re-connecting all of that stuff on my R/T and I found 2 that are cracked to where they'd definitely leak. The one that goes on the manifodl and has 4 ports coming out of it. And the one that has the 2 check valves in it that goes to the throttle body. I'm going to the dealer later to try and find them, but thought I'd ask...

I think they have been NS1 for a long time. IIRC, they were only available when buying an entire vacuum harness anyways. It will be worth the effort to tear all the crappy vacuum system out and run a vacuum block off the fron of the intake. It certainly makes things a lot easier.

I got one that splits into 4 for a TII a couple of years ago.

I have some stock metal fittings from the stock intake if you need any, :D

Vacuum block is a good idea also.

The metal fittings, I got. I meant the rubber tubing connectors that get all dry and cracked with age/heat. Auto Stoned has nothing close...

Yeah, you are SOL on that one. The 8 valve spliters are still available, but the R/T spliters aren't available. I suppose you may be able to work somthing out using the 8 valve piece though.

I found a 3/8" 90* rubber connector at a Napa and used that with the T1/T2 connector before. The check valves might actually be still at the dealer since they probably crossed over to other cars.

Here is what I ended up with. The factory mess is just ridiculous.

I found a substitute (it helps to work for an OEM :) ) for the vac fittings.

I got her started tonight! No water in her yet, so just a start and let it idle for 5 sec. Fired right up after being down for so long, I was surprised. Sounds pretty good thru just a muffler...
