Default Flowtech cutout+QTP opener?

Will they bolt up together?

Yes, just about any electric opener with a 3 bolt flange will bolt up to just about any cutout with a 3 bolt flange. Why, just why must you buy QTP though?

as long as both diameter sizes match they will bolt up just fine. different brands between them don't really matter!

Yeah, I know, I really can't stand them, but I'm going to place a big order to Thunder soon.

Sometimes the bolts will be too short, so you may have to cut the spot welds and replace them. I had that problem with my electric cutout, but the pipe was already on the car. The electric cutout plate is thicker than the regular cover, so just check it before you install it on the car.
