TB question

[LTDMike]

I put the Ho intake on already but I need to put in the Tb I know that the linkage things are the opposite. I read a thread that said to just grind it then put a screw in then weld it, what I wanna know what exactly do I need to grind off to switch the linkage parts?

Pics would really really help out thanks!!!

look at the throttle body levers, you will see where the end of the shaft was pressed to hold the lever on......what you need to do is grind that area flush with the throttle body lever on both throttle bodies, and wiggle the levers off, swap them, and tack weld the lopo lever to the ho throttle body shaft......it's a pita to get the levers off but it's possible......if you dont feel like doing it, mail me a ho and a lopo throttle body, and i'll do it for an hr labor (50 bucks)

see right in the middle of the lever were the welds are thats were you need to grind. This one has already been flipped BTW.

So just grind it flat then just pull it out

Yea, But like said already it takes alot of wiggling to get it off.

Interesting throttle cable bracket you have there.

Scott... did you see this?

Its just a hack together for the moment to get the mustang egr delete to work. I plan on making a nicer one when I switch to the new motor. The bracket is not in the right spot in that picture BTW needs to go in toward the intake another inch.
