Hi

As I posted before I am in need of a new Plenum to air flow meter air hose 70mm to 72 mm dia. Has any body got a good spare I can have for beer tokens or any ideas were I can get one!

Have one in silicone and asume where you can get silicon hoses, these can be ordered as well. ACT for example?
Prefer the silicon one, as the bore inside is smooth instead of corrugated standard stuff. Silicon is a bit stiffer, so a bit of work required to install it, but not too bad.
If you can do a search on the wedge forum, it has been discussed in the past with perhaps more useful information.

Check out the one I fitted on my old wedge. The latest owner has put the car up for sale on pistonheads and has included a pic of the plenum tube. An aluminium elbow with rubber reducers bought for about £35 from the big car accessory shop in Leyland. The air filter was a cheapy from JTF for about £10. It has the advantage of being smooth with a circular cross section all the way around the bend instead of narrowing like the plastic ones do. Boosted my power from 190bhp(DIN) to 325bhp(TVR). If that's too expensive, you could try cutting up old plastic coffee cups and sellotaping them together, but they do have the habit of sucking in their cheeks.
