    I ordered my Elbows last night. The shipping charges are insane but I need to have them done before I go on vacation. I also added in a new Throttle Body Gasket and Thermostat and Gasket as well. I'm going to flush the system with Distilled and replenish with new coolant. I may as well start fresh. I already picked up the MAF Cleaner and Throttle Body Cleaner. I'm glad there are some excellent "How-To's" here on the site to help me along.

    I got them from RockAuto.com I will say that the shipping is pretty steep with them, $15.25 for just the elbows and one thermostat. The problem was that I sat on the phone with Autozone, Pep Boys, Strauss yesterday and what a hassle it was to have them special order it! I finally gave up and just went to Rockauto and ordered them. Sometimes its just not worth the headaches.

    This is what GM should have put in from the factory. Even though I just replaced mine a few months back I'll probably pick up a set just to have as a backup.

    And RockAuto kills you on shipping. Almost always has. I remember I was going to get brakes and rotors off of them. The front rotors were coming from warehouse A, the rears from warehouse B, and the pads from warehouse Z and by the time I factored all that into the price I would have paid $100 more to get from them that I did buying local.

    The only time I buy from them anymore is when its something that is hard to source. I have relatives that work at Advance and hook me up with their discount anyway.

    No, I already checked our system..

    The only way we can get them is to call Dorman straight up and have them ordered in specially.

    I just purchased a set from Rockauto.com, don't forget to look up the 5% off discount code! Anyways, the shipping charges must've been fixed. I only paid $1.85 for first class through USPS.
