So you get the big TB, but how are you going to make the cable connect so when you step on the gas pedal, the butterfly opens?????????? Heres how...........

 

Finally Tommys TB is done. He went to great lengths trying to get the car to start up.

 

darkhorse why oh why is everything you do under the hood just plain old gorgeous. I keep telling myself to get my head done at your place over and over again but American Express puts a hold to that really fast. Maybe Christmas time

 

Thats why it pays to discover the card that pays you back
Maybe this can hold you over until then.

 

where is the TB and where can i get it?

 

Wwwwwwwwwwooooooooooooooooooowwwwwwwwwwwwww

 

well, it is sitting on my bench right now and you cant have this one, I need it. It is a tb from a Mustang. All I did was make the bellcrank so that we can run the stock throttle cable on the EVO its going on.

 

so is this item a special fab? the bellcrank i mean?

 

Yes I just made it yesterday. I needed to come up with a way to be able to run the linkage and this seemed to be the best way. You can use the stock cable, and the slots allow differnt orientations of the crank if need be, as well as a fine adjustment to take up any cable slack by loosening the bolts and pivoting the unit on its axis away from the cable to take up freeplay. Plus I made it from brass so it will look pretty b itchin, even when it gets a patina.

 

So the throttlebody BJ's advertises with their intake doesn't bolt up?

 

The accufab bolts up just fine but the pulley doesn't work without a 10 minute fix.

A cheap way is to take a scrap eclipse tb and cut off the pulley. Grind the accufab flat and weld the pulley to the accufab. Took 10 minutes but it is secure and it works perfect. Not as pretty though- nice effort!

Below is a pic with the iac you can put on to keep some of the drivability. If you don't put this on, you will be adjusting idle the way you did 30 years ago- with a crack screw on the tb!

This tip on the tb comes courtesy off mark at quantum-racing who got me the bjcs intake manifold and was a giant help.

Nastea: it is a standard accufab 75mm for the ford mustang. You will need a tps and the iac to get it so you can tune around it halfway decent.

 

That works too.

 

Hey Guys

I'm also using a mustang trottle body with a custon bellcrank. However I need to know which IAC to use. I'm considering between GM or Ford. Any ideas on which one work better or better still does anyone have wiring schematics???
