86 EGR tube help

[phatboy]

I have a 1986 and am stumped at this point. I removed the EGR tube from the exaust manifold and for the last month I have been looking for a new "compresion ring" (if that is what it is called) to re-connect it to the manifold.
where can I get one of these or even better is the a different way I can reconnect it?

Check with Mid-America or Corvette Central or Eckler's Corvette. I think all these outfits have the compression ring in their catalogs.

don't forget the tool to tighten the ring. the ring isn't worth squat if you can't tighten it!!!!!

I lucked out, I found the rings at Ecklers and the tool I got from Grainger.
Now all I have to do is out it on!

thanks for the help!
