My "Home made" throttlebody how-to!

Hi,

My "Home Made" throtlebody how-to is almost
complete.

The machine shop was busy last week so he didn't get a chance to bore mine out, but its gonna be done monday so I'll have the throttle body tested out. I'll send you all
a link to my how-to on my website as soon as its completed.
