Rims and Discharge tube ????

03-18-2001, 07:42 AM

First issue is that I am trying to find who makes the Gen 2 wheels for Gen 1's and if I can get them in chrome.

Second order of business is that I am looking for a discharge tube for the Paxton SN93 supercharger kit. I am willing to pay top dollar for this piece so if any of you know anyone who stocks old Paxton stuff or a person who has this piece I desparately need it. I have been useing a piece of flex-tube and it works ok but slightly kinks uder high boost. I have called Paxton and a number of companies that stock the old Paxton kits until they are gonebut no luck. NAmotorsports.com was my next try but they are undergoing new ownership and are unavailable. If anyone can lend a hand in this, please let me know. I even tried my local muffler shop but the curve in the pipe is too sharp. Thank you in advance for your help.

Give Sal at PSP a call. He sells a discharge tube that is a heavy-duty flex pipe with the ribs on the outside, making the inside of the pipe smooth. I seen one last year at WFC on Vern's truck (I think) and it looked lick a good quality piece.

Good Luck,

John

My wheels are the chrome AFS 18 inchers. You can see them on my truck at the link below or go to www.afswheels.com to see them. They are worth the extra dough, in my opinion.
