About two weeks ago, someone posted about an EGR tube with BBK unequal length shorties, and they were able to find it at Brothers Performance, but I'm not sure if it's the same part between the two. Here's the thread, so you can take a look and see if it's the same.

Cut the flared ends off your factory one, so you can slip them and the nuts over the 1/2" flexible copper. Bend the copper to the desired shape, slide the nut, then the flared end, then a feril over the end. Tighten it up, and you'll have a new EGR tube. The feril will seal the copper against the factory flared end and the flare will seal against the header and EGR. I've been running like that since September or October when I put my new engine in and it works fine, but I'll replace it once I get some new headers.

Just give yourself about an inch of the stock tube before the flare, so there's room for the nut to slide over it. You'll see what I mean when you get into it, but the copper is a smaller diameter tube than the stock one.

when i put my longtubes on my gt i bought some 5/8" soft copper and spring looking benders and cut to fit then put the stock fitting on that pipe and flared it. no need to spend alot of money on a pre made one.
