Default throttle body

Well I just finished putting in my throttle body, and let me just say LOC-TITE can eat a fatty. anywho, the car is warming up waiting to get its legs stretched. I decided I hate not having a Mustang because I have to do all sorts of custom fab work to make things fit on the car, but it'll all be worth it in the end. I WILL BUILD A CROWN VIC THAT WILL GIVE EVERYONE A RUN FOR THEIR MONEY:banana:
(even if it means an engine swap). I'll let ya'll know what I think of this latest mod.

Dont be disappointed though. To really get a gain from a TB, you really need a new plenum also. Props for doing what most others dont though.

I have a plenum, just didn't have the cash flow for both. they are both on and it seems like the car is breathing better. Throttle response was a big improvement. the 40-100 sprint was exceptional. I think I'm ordering UD pulleys in about five minutes though.
