BBK throttle body

Hey everyone,

I just installed a 58 mm BBK throttle body on my 95 Trans Am, and I can't get the tube that connects the robber hose from the mass air sensor to the throttle body to fit around the new larger throttle body. I tried to make it fit, but it's leaking air Is there an aftermarket tube I can buy that will fit? Has anyone else had this problem? Or know how to fix it?

Thanks.

Your stock one will fit, you just have to be carful. I found sparying the inside of the rubber elbow with a bit of WD40 helps 100% in slipping it on.

You can always get a Vortech elbow or a TrickFlow elbow, they can be found on summit. They are both ceramic coated for a clean look, and the trick flows come with orange rubbers.
