One of the premier silicone hose tube manufacturers wants to prototype a custom all silicone smooth tube that would have the appropriate kink in it instead of being a straight piece of tube that kind of fits. They need someone who is willing to stop by the shop so they can take measurements and build a wooden form for the part. If anyone is interested PM me. Initially they want to do a stock replacement piece, but ultimately plan on making a version for larger throttle bodies.

why don't they use the factory ACR/Mopar hoses as a model?

They will, but they don't trust them and need to verify the locations of the air box ******* and throttle body absolutely. It is not going to be a solid piece with connectors, but rather one single piece of hose. They are also thinking of offering a metal insert that will allow for solid mounting of nitrous/fuel nozzles into the side of the tube.
