Blue drivers seat trim (bottom pieice)

Working my way through reassembling my 84 T-type after a frame off restoration / E85 conversion. I need to find a replacement oil drain tube for the turbo and corresponding manifold grommet. Unless there is a recommended substitute solution - Just finished with finding suitable heater hose replacements, parts aren't exactly "Rockauto" easy to find - probably should have built one of these cars ten years ago

I heard that a newer model gm pcv gommet works just fine

Thanks Andresfel - Part#?

Anyone using braided steel lines to replace the turbo oil feed and drain line kits? Seems better and cheaper then the overpriced used stock components.

Don't take this the wrong way, but some parts were only made for 2 years. 4 years max on many. So while parts may seem overpriced, the supply and demand relationship dictates price.

Be cautious with braided lines. Good luck with the build.

Here is one that is a bit cheaper than Amazon: Grommet for Push-In Oil Breather, 1-1/4 Inch O.D., 3/4 Inch I.D.
