Good morning - looking to find info and replacement of my heat stove pipe for the air cleaner - not sure if it's a solid pipe or flexible?? Just trying to finish up converting everything to original again - also would the sizing be different for my 454 or are they all the same? Thanx

All my vehicles had the flexible duct from the manifold heat stove, to the neck on the air cleaner snout, except one, which was a '73 Chevelle I owned many years ago...
The local auto parts store usually has a few sizes of the duct in stock...

I have mine for my 73. It's not a flex. Maybe you could get one made at an exhaust shop and just weld a little tab on the bottom for the bolt to hold in place.

I measured the inlet on the air cleaner and got 1.75". All the supply shops have nominal sizes but not 1.75. Can someone send some detail pics against a reference measure so I can get one made......or if anyone wants to sell one would be even better. LMK
Thanx, Ross
