Aftermarket Throttle Bodies
I'm sure many have read this and entered the thread expecting to tell me to search. However, I'm not looking for an "are they worth it" answer, or anything of that sort.
My question revolves around the concern of seals in an aftermarket throttle body. I'm looking at the Full Blown Cast unit, and am wondering if they still use shaft seals, and if they will wear out and leak like stock TBs will after time.
I searched around and couldn't find any info on this. Any insight?
Thanks all.

From what I've read, the Full Blow comes with an adapter plate, and thus should fit most IMs, including stock. However, in some cases, some have needed to hone the opening of the plate so it doesn't prove to be a restriction.
