So the filter came off, got sawed open and is full of debris. $&%@#!!! Looking for an in~stock source for the intake gasket.
Any sources?
Thank you for your time.

There was a discussion about this in another thread. It was said Fel pro is 15 months out on manufacturing. NAPA showed 3 in stock in their warehouses, but they may be gone.

I have them on the phone right now, 22 minutes later.
Naturally I am on hold.
Engine go caa-caa and I am in need.
Thank you!!

A shot in the dark, a miss and a ricochet as the bullet flies into oblivion.
That is a no go.

I had a heck of a time locating one a couple months ago.

Managed to find/buy one from Jeff Bezos's empire. Looked back and they are now out of stock.

I just picked this up from NAPA today. I ordered it in on Tuesday. Had to come from WV. There was one more left. I also ordered one from Jeg’s on Monday night, but so far all I got was an email saying they will update me on my order status soon.
Price wise they all seem to be about $70-$80. NAPA let me do their bucket deal and get 20% off, but charged me $14 for shipping. Any way, I figure that if I end up with two, I might be able to help somebody out down the road when they really become impossible to find.

I got one today from O'reilly at 72.99 list price.

I like the ebay listing. Perhaps the seller doesn't know about the exchange rate??

Maybe there's a good reason that it's still for sale?
