throttal Body question??
Monday, October 02, 2006 8:57 AM
I found a local machine shop that will make my stock 52mm tb in to a 62. The question is will taking out that much affect the vacum ports?
and if so what are my options?
If anyone has pics of a 62mm tb vacum ports it would be helpful.

62 mm is most useful for turbo or superchargers. go with 59mm. and i hope you have other mods besides this tb

the 52 mm tb I've been told can be safely bored out to 58/9mm without going into the vac passages.

Don't quote me on that though.

Yup,
I just got my TB back from the machine shop and they ported it out to 62mm.

And um,,.....well I'll have to get pics up but you'll be able to see there is NO materal left around the ports.

But its cool because they stopped at 57mm at first. And they've made 59mm ones for me before.
I told them to go to 62mm just so folks can see what can potentially happen.

Will get pics up.

thank you mastin. I kinda figured there wasn't enough material left on these things to go out that far...

is it still useable? just to make sure.

Not really useable without adding metal to it.

But I'll get pics up tonight after kids get to bed.

Thanks,
