Default Ebay 92 and 102mm throttle bodies...

Anyone run one of these throttle bodies? This seems like a question that has probably been asked 1,000 times, but I couldn't find anything in a search..

102mm Version

92mm Version

The only thing I notice at first glance is no hole in the TB, but I could fix that problem and save $200 from what I can tell?

This isn't designed for an ls1 or ls6.. it is the 4 bolt pattern for a LSX manifold

If you order one, let me know. Excellent price! Looks like the manufacturer is GodSpeed.

Just wanted to update this thread. The TB looks great, all the machining is perfect as far I can tell. I am planning on doing some work on it though. It has similar issues to a stock TB, its just A LOT bigger!! Ill most likely do the bump stop mod, half shaft mod, knife edge blade and outer TB lip, and possibly port the lower portion of the TB. It has a slight "hump" in it on the bottom like the stock TB. Anyone know why it would have that?

The "L" rotates to wherever it needs to be and comes out. I'm not sure how tight the seal needs to be there?

You can see it has the shaft on both sides. Even if I don't do the half shaft mod, I will grind the screws flush as they protrude.

Here you can see the hump, its not huge, but it is there, and you can tell they put it there on purpose?

Looks nice. Looks pretty much the same as the fast 102. Will a 102mm work on a ported ls3 intake? Intake opening is opened up almost to seal. Just don't know if it will seal?

What intake are you using with the TB? It says they will work with the stock manifold, is this true?

LS1/LS6 stock manifolds are 3 bolt. LS2/LS3/LS7 stock manifolds I believe are 4 bolt.

This TB is probably intended for the FAST 102.

It's hard to explain in text, but it's jut like what everyone does when they port a stock throttle body. I'll try and find a thread with pics or something.
