Intercooler Boots?

I was checking out the boots at RiffRaffl, and realized it said it was only for late 99-03,
Is there none for my early 99??

Clay is awesome, but Bob at Dieselsite is great too. I have a set of Dieselsite's IC and engine boots on my rig and the boots are monsters! Once I work down the need list, I will start with the top of my want list (Clay's intake manifold sleeves!).

I just put Clay's intake sleeves in. No more boot leaks. Found out I have a slight leak from just behind the hpop though. Very easy to install these sleves. The boots are the pita.

Save your self the money and just go with Clay's boots they are the best IMO. I know a couple of guys that could not keep the diesel site boots on for the life of them but then they switched to the RR boots and no more problems. I am currently running 53 PSI threw his boots in the 6.4 and there going no where! Got them on both the 7.3 and 6.4 and soon on the 6.0!

Had Clay been doing this a couple of years ago I would most likely have gone through him, but I've always had good luck with everything I've bought from Bob at Dieselsite. I am surprised people have had issues with them. I had a hard enough time getting the spider and tubes back on with those monster boots. I only have the stock turbo, but my CCV still routes to the intake and I have yet to have any issues 2 years later.

We don't yet have the Early 99 boots, but they are in production. We held off offering them because of such small demand and the amount of Early 99 guys that convert over to the Late 99 set-up.

Do you have an idea when they will be available?
What does it take to convert an E99 to a L99?
Thanks for posting Clay

We are hoping to have all 3 colors ready in 3-4 weeks.

You would need plenums, up-pipes, Spyder, pedestal, late turbo, ford gray RTV, and some o-rings. I have all of it if you want to do it, happy to help.

That sounds like it will not be cheap. I better get some of the more pressing stuff out of the way first. I will still be interested in the boots for what I have
THanks
