Ok I have a few questions on this and I can't seem to find it anywhere on the web.

I recently purchased this 58mm Throttle body here in Japan extremely cheap in Japan ($250) It is new, but I think it is missing some of the gaskets (if it even came with any)

The body is a Billet unit, and there is not a front mount for the factory air inlet hose, just a flat face. The TPS sensor is attached and there are 7 bolts and a gasket on the bottom for the IAC control plate.

The top Section is covered with a Lingenfelter plate with orange letters.

Is this from a kit?

Can somebody give me a part # for the gasket to the main TPI?

How rare is this unit?

You can get gaskets from LPE. You will need the front piece if you ever intend to use the throttle body. They are not rare, if you want one you just send about $400 to LPE and one will show up on your door step. The one you have does look to be the old version that was actually made by LPE. It should say "Lingenfelter" on the throttle arm somewhere. I have the same one. Be very careful with the return spring assembly because Accel does not sell replacment parts and they are made of cheap plastic. I found that out the hard way. Here's a link to the gaskets...............

Thanks for the quick response. I will be using the throttle body but there will be a custom fabricated intercooler piping setup mounted to it, thats why I was happy to find one without the front snorkel.

I looked on the throttle plate and found nothing to indicate a Lingenfelter marking, some weitd symbols though. LOL

Thanks again

Throttle arm, not throttle plate.

 

Thats what I meant, sorry but again no lingenfelter on it
