Not relevant to what you're dealing with but, I was coming out of Valdez Alaska once while driving commercially, and blew a CAC. Of course with nothing nearby and no way to turn around i had to keep going. I went to the next town and stopped at the store there, grabbed some JB weld and "patched" the split. Lasted 3 more runs while the shop ordered me a new one. It did end up blowing again as i was making my last run but... I might have been pulling 115K up over a mountain. I swear that engine never ran as good as it did with a 12 inch tear in the CAC.

Newell quoted about $3000 plus freight. Where is people's choice for cac?

It has been several years, but Atlas Radiator in Corpus Cristi provided me with a radiator and a CAC. it was my understanding that for my '99 coach they were the original manufacturer. Both items fit perfectly.

In a pinch you can bypass the CAC with a tube of same size in and out but baby the motor to keep the boost down till you can replace it.
