Part Number 17092109 Evaporation Canister

Hello ThirdGen!!!
just throwing this out there.....
Might anyone know where I can order a replacement evaporation canister? I’m in Canada and require one to meet emissions but am unable to get one from anywhere up here including wreckers! I’ve tried Summit and Jegs to no avail. The one in my Z weighs about as much as a cinder block and I believe is the culprit for throwing a code but I can’t be certain as my car is modded pretty heavy (supercharged, custom tune ect) I have new TBS and O2 and EGR. Thank you all ahead of time!

FYI the buicks and I think oldmobiles in the 80s/90s used the same evap canister, in case you are searching ebay etc. But if you cant find it, you can convert to what the trucks use pretty easy. The canisters are the same diameter, just a few inches taller and they dont have the solenoid built in. They are also still manufactured.
The connector/plug on the solenoids are the same, so its plug and play. But you would need to get some rubber hose or fuel line to run from the canister to the solenoid since like I said they are separate parts. A little reconfiguration but at least you get new equipment.
