Is this part still available?
On my 85, coming off the bottom of the throttle body is what the Haynes manual calls a vacuum damper valve. Is this the proper name for it and does anybody know if it's still available? The FSM probably lists it but I couldn't find the darn thing in there. On later Vettes this piece is called the cruise control valve and is located near the rear of the intake someplace. It is about 5/8 in. diameter with three tubes coming off it. Sorry, this is a poor description but I don't have any pics.

There is a vacumm valve with a tree on it, that you might be talking about. If it is, the part is still available. See other post.

85vet, thanks for your offer but if it's still available I'd rather get a new one, and thanks to biggrizzly I now know it is. Thanks to both of you.
