Mate, do you know of an item code for the new Tickford 70mm throttle body, as in the T-Series? Looks great, and I REALLY want one!! :D :D :D

Any help would be fantastic on this one mate. Cheers. :thumbup:

EL2:
To use this throttle body you need to bore out / machine the inlet to the plenum to match. Take that into account!

If I remember correctly the Cobra Intake or GT40 manifolds are able to take a 70mm throttlebody without machining that is if he has one or getting one.

intersesting though the egr spacer is the same across the board.

Mr Sparkle

Ok an update. Just spoke with Alan at Southside, he reckons that yes, with the spacer it shouldn't be a problem to fit. Also, the price they quoted me was a little lower at $783, but still pretty pricey. The SVO 65mm unit is currently $565.80.

Hmm, got some saving to do! :cussing: :fmad: :(

Be sure about that machining thing. Tickford machine the manifolds for the 220 engines, so it makes sense that it has to be done.

True. Alan was also saying that on the T-Series, they run a manifold which doesn't have a spacer... haven't looked close enough to check this out..

When the time comes closer I'll be scrutineering, never fear!! :D
