Source for auxiliary venturies

A few (3) of the auxiliary venturies on my 48 IDA's are poor castings and have casting faults in the outer end of the passage that extends into the center of the venturi. Every place I have tried to get them from has said they think there are some coming into the country soon.....4 weeks or so. These are the long tube (4.437 overall length) part No. 69009 4.5 Anyone out there have some spares or a source for these parts? Any help greatly appreciated!

Ive bought from CB Performance out of Cali several times for my IDF's. I will continue to do so, great service and prices.

Any luck finding what you need?

Thanks Rick I have my order in...will see what happens. Here is a picture of the center portion of the aux. venturi from the bottom. You can see the incomplete casting on the right hand side of the delivery tube as well as a slit in it. This would probably make for very difficult tunning/syncronizing to say the least.

Has anyone else discovered their auxiliry venturi's to be like this inside? Or was I the only "lucky" guy?

Definately poor casting and machining, good catch on your part.
