Default Nick williams 102mm throttle body

Gents,

Can one of your give me the height dimension of the NW 102mm LS1 throttle body? I need this for my close hood clearance application.

Thanks!

I fit the PTM 102 under my hood(barely) but I cannot recommend it. Honestly it's a POS. Very poor tolerances. Went through three of them until I said screw it and took a dremel to it. I cannot imagine the NW being any taller but I can bet the quality is better. :-) I will also note that the 102tb is too big for the 5.7 unless you are maxed N/A. At 420rwhhp I get full throttle at anything 70% and 102kpa on the map. I used the Holley 90mm years back and it was great. Very low top too. A 92mm should be more than enough.

Thanks for the input!

The 92mm and 102mm throttle bodies are the same outer dimensions. I have a proven plan for this motor and the heads and cam are next. The 102/102 set up will not be too big

I checked with Texas-Speed and they were very helpful. The NW 102mm is 5.5inches tall.
