C6 intake reducer coupler

Corvette High Flow Reducer Coupler : 2006-2013 C6 LS3 stock throttle body to stock air cleaner. These 4 ply vinyl seem overpriced ($44.00 ++). Any suggestions?

You can get silicone couplers for as cheap as $10. You just need to know what size ID to get.

Thank you....two problems they don't list 4.75" I.D. (air cleaner O.D. side) and I do not know if the silicon can be heated safely. Spectre doesn't recommend heating it. I expect the silicon would be heat resistant but wanted to soak it in hot water to expand it 1/4" Also their reducers are only 3.5" long...I need 4.5"...What do you think? Appreciate your great assistance.

Hey, folks. Let me save you all the hassle of clicking on the links posted....these vendors do NOT have the correct 4.75 to 4.0 size needed for our Vettes.
