Throttle Body/Plenum combo

jivepepper · March 19th, 2009, 09:08 PM

Back when the pro poducts first came out I bought the satin 75mm tb/plenum for 205 shipped.

KevinJ99GT · March 19th, 2009, 09:22 PM

i just went ahead and ordered the 75mm polished combo..hope i have no problems with it!

You shouldn't. I have an 02 and had 0 problems.

The only "problem" people have experienced is the diameter of the hole for the throttle cable pin is the exact diameter of the pin. Even if you have to drill it out, it takes all of 10 seconds to do.

Now, if I told you to drill a hole and I will give you $200 would you do it? Of course you would, so why is this any different? I'll answer that,it's not. But because 96.7% of the people you will encounter in life are complete morons who have never been out of their house, they are going to complain about such an "inconvenience" and will pay the extra $200 for the Accufab because that was the fad of the week at MM.

I ordered pp 75mm t/b&plenum combo about 2 weeks ago from latemodelrestoration and it is back ordered. They don't even have a date of when they will have them in stock again.

Best thing ive read on here in the last few weeks. Everyone always likes to complain about how horribly things fit. Just about any aftermarket part is not going to fit perfect, and like rage said its not really a fitment issue its just the matter of taking ten minutes to drill some holes.
