see my post about "what to look for in a repair shop" for the latest on the truck fixing issue 
I've been looking fora tube like that since I got my kkm. I wouldnt' buy it even if I found one right now, but I'd definatley ear mark it.
whats confusing me is... in 96 and half of 97 they had cone filters and larger smoothed out formed plastic intake tubes.. then.. mid 97 they switched to the box filter and rubber tubes (this is all 5.0 btw) why would they do that? wouldn't this change be more restrictive than the previous design?
