Default Transmission Vacuum Fitting/Intake Manifold

Does anyone know where I might get this fitting? It is GM discontinued.

I'm not sure exatly what your 79's fitting looks like, but my auto 77 has a cross shaped 3 port manifold vacumm fitting. It was too tall for the Holly I installed, so I went to a low profile three port fitting I got from "Year One". It is an on line Camaro restoration vendor that Lars told me about. Hope this helps....Good Luck Paul

Eddie,
The pics are not back up. It is a straight, one-pipe vacuum fitting. Probably just an auto store brass stock item.

ZIP has quite an assortment of vacumm fittings. Check there if you come up empty at the local parts store. I just got a one port fitting for the 72 from them!!

I should have my EBay 1979 L-82 GM #14007378 intake in a week or so. This is a winter project. I will post pics as I restore it. I have the new AC Delco TVS switches (EFE and EGR) at hand already. Love these experiments!
