Need ATS kit help!

I found an ATS kit locally, but its missing the snail, and the valve cover.... I have a few extra valve covers, so I dont mind making one house the CDR if I have to, but can you buy just the snail from ATS?? I sent them an Email and the reply talked about grommets and some other stuff, but nothing about the snail....

Thanks guys!
Bob

What turbo kit is it? If its an older none wastegated setup than I doubt ATS will be any help at all. Might be worth phoning them directly and asking some on that way so they can't ignore your question.

Well if this helps, I just installed an old 088 ATS system non wastegated on my 7.3. I was trying to replace the intake valley grommet but ATS said they don't have parts for that anymore.

Wreckers and ebay might be your best bet. Hope this saves you some time.

dieselhappy, Try calling ATS and asking for a G6973VP. I just bought some in March. $7.09 each.

Yeah, if it was a wastegated system, you should be able to get the turbine housing. I don't think ATS lists it separately on their website, but I'm sure if you called you could get it.

thanks gnathv... I moded the down spout on the ATS casting to fit ford newer style valley grommets that come with the CDR kit. Thanks for the number though will pass it on to a buddy of mine with same problem.
