75mm Throttle Body Question

Anyone have the BBK 75MM Throttle Body installed w/Spacer?

If so, is it a direct fit? or is there some work you have to do to attach the cables?

ditch the spacer or don't buy it...

the larger TB will help if you have the elbow ported and polished otherwise you'll have a slight whistle


what mods have you done so far?

A spacer alone is not worth much. If you are going to 75mm TB, the elbow needs to be sized to match for a clean transition.
Here is one from my superchargerd 4.6. It is 75mm straight thru till the curve of the elbow. I added a spacer to increase plenum volume.

So far, this is what I have: AirRaid Spacer, Stage 2 CAI, 3.75" Exhaust to 40 Series Flowmaster, Edge Programmer, Viper Auto Start/Alarm, Bluetooth/Handsfree thru Speakers, TomTom 730, Alpine 6x9's all around with Kenwood 250Watt Amp w/ JVC Head Unit, sitting on Eagle 102's 17x9 w/ 285/70/17 Nitto Terra Grapplers.
01' 4x4 4.6L XLT Screw

I'm trying to work on the little things for now, and work my way up to the bigger, more expensive projects. Along with the Throttle Body and Headers that I wanna get, I'm looking at Brakes, Rotors, and Lights. So hopefully here in the next week or two I should have some new parts to install.

Hey what type of place does the porting for the plenum? Is the stock tb and plenum size 65?
