Default Emission part for a 1980.
I need an EFE tube for my '80. Any suggestions where I can find one? I have already tried: dealer, Ebay and Craig's List.

Thanks in advance!

Carlisle would have been perfect but that was last week. Give Rik's Corvette a try...they deal with used parts. Thought I've seen those on eBay before

This guy had all the parts pump, tubes, brackets etc.- restored to original condition - that I needed for a '79. Believe his name is Bill Hodel. Advertises in Hemmings. I will send contact info if I can find the paperwork.

It's a pre-bent tube that connects the exhaust valve that's located at the bottom of the right side exhaust opening to a ported vacuum switch on the the thermostat housing.

Yeah, I think your engine needs it. That is a very impressive setup you have there. Very nice '80 by the way.
