Throttle Body Modifacation....
I am looking to modify My Stock throttle body.
I have removed everything that connects to the throttle body except IAC and TPS.
So now i have the vacuum lines sticking out not being used(they were previously just plugged up).
My question is what can be done to remove these unsitely things?
Can IAC be moved and put maybe on the bottom of the plenum, and a plate be made to blockoff the part on the throttle Body?
is it ok to cut off the vacuum lines and plug the hole up with jd weld and sand?
Here are some pics of my throttle body...

Here's how I did my IAC housing:

As for the little EGR nipple on the bottom of the TB I just capped it off.
The vacuum ports on the side of the TB I just capped them off also. If your not using the PCV and charcoal cannister anymore you can do the same. I suppose you could cut and fill them in but I never bothered to try it.
