Default Bo White Throttle Body is In

I just received a ported throttle body from Bo White. I was worried a little because he was from Tuscallosa (grin), but this unit is top quality.

Thanks Again Bo!

Bo, what do you use to port the aluminum? The grinding stones I tried gum up really quickly. I tried the little sanding drums with my dremel, but they wear very quickly. Would I need one of these?

Yes, if you are limited to a Dremel use the Dremel-134 7.8mm. I am shut down officially still until I can evaluate how much of my schedule for porting will be available . I have had SO MANY request not to stop but I think at the moment thats what I will have to do in fear of APE, Jantzer, Absolute, JPR drama happening again(maybe not to that extent- just using extreme examples).

I was a little worried about the fact he is from Tuscaloosa, too (being from Knoxville, TN: GO VOLS), but the TB turned out great.

War Eagle! (I love the SEC) I put the throttle body on last night. I can't believe how much better the throttle response is. I wish I'd done this years ago. Thanks Again Bo!

This is why I love the SEC. You should add Florida, Georgia, LSU, Mississippi to the list of either Bad, Ugly or Puke Faces . People in Texas think thier football is the biggest, but they don't have any idea how big it can be.
