I got the t-body flange all laid out
then got to thinking
do you guys want it to match the stock flange or want it on a square plate ????
Who all wants some ??

If using the square Ford style TB, what are guys doing for the IAS motor? The Mustang versions don't have one, let alone one that works like ours do.

most just crack the throttle open a little
there is a tiny hole in the middle of them too

I'm using the 60mm 4-bolt jeep throttlebody
uses a 4-wire ais also

I'll try and do it with both pattern's tomarrow

I'll make them the same size as the factory unless someone wants them bigger
to many plenum sizes/shapes possible

Not true. Some have it on the TB, most don't. I don't remember specifics, but I can look if need be.

tried running both pattern's on one flange
the jeep uses 6mm bolts while ours use 8mm
the jeep is ever so slightly smaller spacing on the 2 bolts that match ours
our throttle body would look crooked if we lined it up on the 45' bolts from the jeep

So we made 2 different throttle bodies
I'll have them at SDAC and Carlisle if anyone wants them
I've got nice thick tight radius 2.5" alumn. elbows also

Could you make a flange with countersunk holes for the intake? Remove the 2 studs and use cap screws to mount the flange. The t.b. could be mounted by the other 2 holes in the t.b. The holes can easily be drilled out to use 8mm bolts or capscrews if needed.
I REALLY need a cast 2.5" aluminum elbow for my Holset compressor housing. :eyebrows:
