We found three of these in inventory and we're not even sure how we ended up with them since they are custom order items. So, we've drastically lowered the price from retail (around $700), and they are now SOLD.

See these garage-door size throttle bodies *Edit to remove dead link*

Thanks.

Yep... now all I have to do is figure out how to adapt it BACK to an LT1 (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

While I ordered it with the LT1 style TPS, I already have a 6-speed (automatics don't like monoblades much (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) ), and a spare intake manifold to mock it up with... it says the linkage is an 82-88 style.

I sent an email to TPIS, but if anyone knows how to convert the linkage back to a 93-97 style I'd be happy to take notes. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) (hopefully I can just swap the guts over from my stock TB).

Considering the hp levels this baby is designed for, my "project goal" of 600hp shouldn't have any problems with induction... though I'm seriously considering a stiffer or second Throttle return spring... and maybe some MAF vs. TPS testing to see if I can work out a better cam profile for a gentler ramp-up (prevent problems with cruise control or automatic's tranny line pressure).

Anything I can do to keep the first couple inches of gas pedal travel similar in CFM to stock, the better idle daily driving I'll get. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
