Jeff,

Don't laugh, but I just did this on my car.  My heater box had a badly
dried out foam ring on top of it to seal to the underside of the
plennum.  The diameter of the opening at the top of the heater is 4".
The standard size toilet flange is 4".  I bought one of the foam type
toilet seals (the other type is the wax ring) and used that.

About $0.99 at Home Depot.

Rob in Ottawa

P.S.  I could be mistaken on the diameters, it could be they are both
4.5".  In any case, the foam sealing ring is a perfect fit.

Hi List,
 
Anyone have a suggestion as to what to use for the large heater seal
that goes between the heater box and the plenum (underside of the dash)
on a TR4-6?  This part is apparently not available from any source, and
mine's destroyed.
 
TIA
 
Jeff
