    Replacement Silicone connectors

    I have a Paxton SN89 on a 5.0L Mustang and the original orange silicone sleeves that connect the outlet of the supercharger to the throttle body are so old that they are dry rotted.

    Where can I purchase replacements? Does anyone know what sizes they are?
    Still using the plastic Paxton discharge tube if that matters.

    thanks

    I've got a few links on my computer at home for silicon hoses, I'll post them up later this pm.

    I have some links some place, but if you have a large Rice gathering in your area they are cheaper to purchase locally. I can't remember but I think you need 3" for the discharge plastic tube.

    Now if you are not picky about color, you can usually pick up silicon hoses at any 18-Wheeler supply company.

    My original orange sleeves were the same way. I got my sleeves from Vortech. They are blue and are identical in size as the originals. The Vortech ones are more durable though.
