iv done mine in which you would do it
ie. grindback the metal lip right back till smooth all the way round to a polished look,
cut one side of the butterfly holder away and get that smooth.
completely smooth butterfly to polished look, then complete soak it in polish and rub it in buff off etc until your happy with it
you should have a go ryan you may suprise yourself instead of slating something you havent tryed...smart arse answer will be 'i have throttle bodies so why would i bother'
its not rocket science is it, c'mon work it out...

Anyway spencer as i have said i rate you service very highly! |
Yea ok i think we know that you are happy with yours as you have said it about 20 times in this thread.

not a lot cause it wont fit. the money would be better spent elsewhere for the trouble you would go to making it fit. you would have to bore the inlet manifold opening out to accommodate the extra diameter on the throttlebody. otherwise it will make the car less powerful due to hitting a flat face where the tb meets the inlet manni.

also a big single throttlebody can give poor airspeed at low revs so its not necessarily the best to fit a huge one to a normally aspirated engine. A lot of big engined cars use a duel throttlebody setup with two different size plates.
