Exclamation Explain....

what is this i hear about polishing the elbow? I have installed one of these already. What do i need to do to the elbow, how long does it take? and how much should it help? I have exhaust and k&N intake, but didnt notice that much from BBK throttle body.

Thanks in advance

Polishing the elbow along with a good intake helps with airflow as well, but your motor can't make use of it without the necessary hardware that would call for more airflow.

Mods like a good set of kook's long tube headers and a Magna Flow Cat back system helps there. An Ex-Cal 2 Tuner would make use of the BBK. There has to be a demand for more airflow... Upgraded injectors and a Walboro fuel pump also are pieces of the puzzle..

heres another one of those WTF did they angle the TP sensor up???


because they angle it up the connectors hit for the TPS and IAC. so i had to go find one of my spare ones and pray it was angled differently. well i did i had one. and it works so just be ware of anyone if ur IAC connector is on the bottom a BBK wont work for ya. unless u got another IAC
