Ford F150 - MAF Intake Tubing

Hey again... I'm almost done with this engine swap and one of the only parts I'm missing is the intake tubing. I'm having trouble finding the intake tube that goes from the throttle body to the MAF in the 2 into 1 setup. I have read a bunch of posts on here about 94 and 95 intake tubing being what I'm looking for but I have heard its discontinued? I have been to a couple junkyards and all those trucks have had it taken off already. And the only other options I have found are a $278 K&N setup or going to Home Depot and using PVC tubing... I'm doing this on a budget and don't feel like spending $300 on the intake (plus, I need that money for the long tubes and true duals

) I will spend it if need be, but would rather not. Any help or other ideas would be appreciated. Thank You in advance

PVC will meet your needs just fine, and for a fraction of the cost. All you're doing is setting up ducting, it doesn't have to be expensive to funnel air.

Although I hate recommending them, Pep Boys stocks universal intake tubes in their cheap-ass rice burner section. They are made of PVC and are corragated to make some nice easy bends.

We don't have a Pep Boys around here but Advanced Auto Parts might have the same kit you are talking about... I will check it out. Maybe I can get some ground effects and neon underglows for my truck from the same section ;-)jk. Thank You (I really am going to check it out)

Largest auto yard resource on the net that I know of, many places will let you pay for the parts with a credit card and ship them to you..

Go to the site and enter your truck info, look up the airbox..

Call the places listed and ask if they have the intake hose..
