Are you talking about MIL.SPEC throttle bodies here? Just curious.

To the OP, I have alerted Aby and he should be contacting you shortly. Last time I checked, our throttle bodies were 65mm all the way through

I want to thank Mil Spec for clarifying my questions and I have independently verified their TB's are indeed 65mm.

The throttle body in question is not a MilSpec unit. Working with seller to resolve issue.

As far as RockmanX...????
