Here are the vacuum actuators. Most suppliers sell them. I have never seen the flappers sold as a kit or separately, but maybe someone will prove me wrong.

Default FLAPPERS

when you say flappers do you mean the part that goes inside the air cleaner snorkels?...my T/A dual snorkel has a similar design...I have never seen those parts offered for sale...I am guessing your a/c is now used and you could not exchange it?

Not sure of correct name but yes the parts inside the snorkles. Yes I have been using the air cleaner and now I sent it to PY today to get it upgraded to be functional.

Contact Tim Benko in Ohio. He manufactures numerous reproduction air cleaners and supplies many of the vendors. He is a great guy and makes some very nice stuff. I think (years ago) he was converting the early Parts Place made (HO/Ram Air) air cleaners that were sold for some time as an incomplete assembly. I know that they were missing the flappers/baffles and I believe the vacuum actuators as well. The Parts place stopped short and basically just sold the shell back then.
