I'm always trying to cut costs on this thing. The BBK 80mm throttle body for a hemi = $360 plus a factory TPS and IAC. Screw that, the BBK Ford 80mm tb I've got kicking around the shop is freeeeeee. All I had to do was slot the holes, drill a locator pin hole, and bolt it on. Not bad and saved probably $400.

Marking out the new mounting holes.


5 minutes with a die grinder.




Good to go.


Yanked out that hose fitting, tapped the hole to 1/8 NPT and plugged.
