Flipping the LS3 Throttle Body Hello all.
I have low hood clearance on my conversion and as it is, the throttle body [an LS3 DBW TB] just hits the hood. I was thinking of flipping the throttle body. I did so and it does bolt up fine and it does clear the hood but i am worried if theres something that could go wrong during operation or something I havent thought of???
In order to do this, the crossover steam pipe must be bent a bit an im not worried about doing that. Anything else?
Thanks!

Great thanks. I didnt know if there were any other functional passages within the outer rim of the TB that needed to align with the intake or something.
