L69 dual snorkel flex hoses??
Hey guys,

Does anyone know if there's a place to buy the left and right flex houses for an L69 air cleaner?

Also, has anyone come up with an alternative solution for replacing the missing hoses??

Thanks

I think I used a couple of ducts from a 350 truck air cleaner.

I think I used a couple of ducts from a 350 truck air cleaner. I used regular ducts to connect to the truck aircleaner ducts. Not original, but it works, and looks good.

Looks good Stevolwevol!

Anyone know if the correct hoses can still be purchased new?

WoW this is an old thread, but old threads to me are still relevant. I really don't think I knew what year the truck I got them, but probably from late 80's or early 90's off of a L05 engine. It was from a bone yard around here.

Last time I checked, the hoses were discontinued. Would be nice to know if they are available yet.

You would think that since repros are available for some of the Corvettes, someone would start reproducing the L69 hoses.
