Intake elbow part numbers

My '94 Z28 has a ripped rubber elbow. It is the one with the long dongle on the bottom and a temp sensor on the outside. I have a small hole punched for the opti hose (1995 opti).

The rip is pretty bad so I need a new one.

I think there is ine I can get without the dongle. If so I would like to order that one. The dealer says they don't know how to figure out which part is which.

I have these numbers which I think came from Shoebox...: P/N 25147210 is the '94 1LE w/o vent nipple ($95.63 retail) and P/N 25147187 is the '95 1LE w/ vent nipple ($155 retail!).

I just need to know which part. I can easily ice pick a hole to save $90.00.

25147187 is only $80 retail and $46 wholesale. Get one from Jason or Dal (~$46).

Your dealer is not very smart and also trying to rip you off.

Thank you. Ordered from dealer. $60.00 including tax. It will be here tomorrow. The next day shipping is worth it.

The long tube is a "silencer". Not really needed, but you can't just remove it without closing up the hole left behind.

If I recall, it's the unvented 1LE elbow that's more $$of the 2.. I got the cheaper vented one, and just plugged the hole for now til I get around to upgrading cam, opti, TC, etc..

No silencer and a bit thicker rubber. Less prone to being damaged during installation.

do you think theres a diference in the 1le and an aftermarket metal arm....because I've heard that the metal arms heat up and causes your intake air temp to be hotter
