My intake manifold had a plastic nipple that ran the brake booster on my truck. I somehow managed to break that nipple and need to find another one. does any one know where I can find that nipple? I am not sure I really want to try driving that truck without the brake booster working. Thank you for any help!

Was it connected to the #6 intake runner?


If so, I believe it's threaded as NPT (not sure of the size), and you should be able to go to the hardware store to get something that will work....

Check your local auto parts store.

I want the nipple that is on the #6 intake runner, it had at least one small branch off for a vacuum line for elsewhere on the engine. Unfortunately the auto parts stores don't seem to have it available

That's a junkyard item, some of the late slants I've pulled out of trucks lately were NF threaded instead of NPT like the Pre-80's.

The good thing is that these are the same on similar era V-8's so find a 1980-1990 Dodge 318 and pull the tree from it...
