I got mine from a holden wrecker, from memory i used throttle kick solenoid off a VH commodore.

I'll post up if i remember exactly what wrecker I got it from. But you're probably after a new / less bunky solution?

You cant buy new ones..
Why would you want a new one for? Not much can go wrong with one of these.

Hard to find one (new) with enough grunt to hold it open, hence all the old Link equipped cars that had antilag used the old VC-VH carb AC throttle up solenoid - big, ugly, reliable and grunty. Rare as hens teeth these days, best bet as mentioned is a holden wrecker.
