I've been running a BBK throttle body for about three months without any sign of any problem. When installing it I had to drill the hole for the throttle cable a little larger in order to get it to fit properly. After that it works great.

BBK TB's are a decent product, but I prefer Accufab. And Accufab performs better IMO. But go with whatever you want man.

I almost got the BBK combo plenum/tb because they were on sale. But when I went back to get the one a week later the sale was over.


I ended up getting A proffesional products satin one for like 110 shipped. That's almost 2 years agao.

I have the same Plenum...I gave like 100 shipped off ebay about 2 years ago...I run a BBK 75MM TB with it...For the difference in price between the Accufab and the Profession Products...I figured I could live with missing a few ponies from a plenum...
