bellows- where to get one?

I have start up and intial hesitation....determined that bellows as well as my after market air pipe are cracked.

I was told the factory bellows will run $250. Is there an alternative or source of used chevy parts?

also, does anyone know if K&N (or anyone else) can sell me the air pipe alone, so I can keep my K&N cone filter.

Uh, what are you talking about? The intake elbow? Is this on a 93-97 Camaro?

$250..... $151..... You've got to be kidding. List price is $133.

gmpartsdirect has the factory 1LE bellows (no noise silencer tube) for $80 plus shipping. Go here and search part # 25147187

http://www.gmpartsdirect.com

Shipping is usually high there, but it's not going to cost anywhere near $151 at your door.

Re: bellows- where to get one?

The time between your posts was 7 minutes. Today's patience lesson ran you $100.

What's wrong with the K&N tube? Just fix it if you can, unless of course you just have the money to blow on another tube.

Take some pictures and post them up. I'd like to know what it looks like and we might be able to suggest some repair tips.
