Intercooler pipe adapter ???

[sy#2921]

Anyone know where I could get a round to oval adapter for some fmic piping? I am redoing the 1/8" thick piping on the truck and want to use hard pipe up to the throttle body instead of making a 3-4" coupler work.
Any ideas??

vortech and trickflow both make one

www.siliconeintakes.com is one of the cheapest silicone hose places around, they shipped fast when I bought a bunch of stuff. Might have what you need.

I was hoping to avoid using a silicone coupler as the adapter. I would just cutout the one I have but don't want to ruin the upper intercooler pipe to steal it. The lt1's hard pipe look like what I want but have a port for a sensor that I do not need. I might just stick to my ida of a round TB for now

The hard way:
Split a 3" pipe and weld in a triangle at top and bottom for matching up to 4" oval, and of course weld on atleast 1/2" flat at the oval 4" for the coupling to the TB

Sounds like you are lookin gfor something like this:

This was made for member ViciousV6 by member CKEITH IIRC. Excellent workmanship

The one on ViciousV6's truck is what I am looking for, maybe just a little shorter in length due to the way I am running my intercooler piping.
