I cannot find a crossfire injection water outlet/thermostat housing. Every one I found does not fit and the hose neck angle is way off.(napa, oehq, rock auto, and etc) it keeps hitting the a/c compressor. Does anyone have a CFI theromostat housing or know a suitable replacement?

 

Call the folks at Mid America Motor Works, http://www.mamotorworks.com .
They can probably hook you up with a cross fire vette t-stat housing.

 

bump

 

if nothing turns up could possibly have a welding shop
weld up the original housing.

 

is thier something really special about it? You couldnt purchase one of those SBC adjutable thermostat housings you adjust to the position you need?

 

These aren't the best shots, but they will give you an idea of what it looks like.

The green wire in one of the pictures is currently holding up the power steering pump, as I have removed the support and pulley to do some other work.

The Part Number is 14064012, and it is specific to the LU5 engine only.

 

that is my thermostat housing but the part number is 14037618

 

I do not want a crome one and the noncrome ones cost good $$$
plus my trans am is a daliy driver

 

Well a chrome one doesnt care if your car is a daily driver or not. Buy chrome sand it down some paint it black and be done with it...you dont have to make it as difficult as you are.

I don't know if you saw the thread in the History board re the Firebird DT500 pace car that is going to the crusher? It has a CFI in it and the owner is trying a sell parts off of it. If you contact him quick you might get lucky.

Sorry, i don't have the link to the tread handy.

 

thanks dude i found it

 

Where did you find it? I'm having the same problem with the aftermarket housings. They interfere with the AC bracket.

Thanks!
Fred

 

interesting the t-stat housing on my 82 is painted gloss black. Looks to be original, but I don't know for sure.
