Default ANyway to know what a 4 hole throttlebody flows?

I came across a real good deal on a 4 hole throttlebody. Has NO markings at all, not even a number on it. Appears to be an older Accel unit just by looking at pics on the net. Has a GM TPS on it, looks like it will accept a GM IAC motor. Is made from billet aluminum.

It has 1.750 bores in it.

I am thinking about doing a deal like OutlawZ with one of these and a carb hat plumbed into my mass air meter and WS6 airbox, seems to be some power there over my sheetmetal elbow and Monoblade.

Any ideas on how to find out what it flows?

David I agree I think there is some power to be found with the 4/hole TB's if I am not mistaken most up them flow well over 1300cfm (our monoblades).

I found the throttlebody, It is a Holley 1000 cfm, but the flow depends on what depression it was flowed at.

I can get it for $100, here is a pic. The IAC is missing, but the TPS is there.
