Default Does anyone sell this?

I'm looking for the rubber part that sits on top of the air filter holder and goes up against the hood. Mine is cracked and looks like it might need to be replaced soon. Can't find it in the eckler's or mid amer catalogs. Can anyone point me in the right direction or give me a gm part number?

'75 coupe, L48, TH400

I'm with ZD on this one. You can make it cheaper using the roll-type weatherstripping available at most parts stores/outlets (or even available from hardware stores). Unless you are looking for originality...

Yikes! $50 for a ring of rubber? That's a bit steep for me. I think I"ll wait until it cracks in half and then I have to replace it. How well does that weatherstripping thing work?

I just got this from ZIP and it's going back. The orginal seal on mine is a much better quality section. The one ZIP sent is thin and flimsy. A cross section comparison isn't even close. :confused:

I understand that Dr. Rebuild has the original type available.
