What is the going price? I charged $400.00 for a completly reworked throttle body. That included the Lightning Lever tig welded onto the shaft. All new screws in the TB since I completely took it apart to weld without inducing excess heat into the bearing for the shaft or any of the plastic parts. I also used polished stainless steel Allen headed screws for the TPS to aid in adjustment if any were required. I povided a gasket (TB to adapter) and if the customer requested extra screws so that they could disassemble for polishing. The UPS shipping charge was an additional $15.00 and that included double boxing, insurance for the full value of $400.00 and the cost for signature request. I wanted to make sure that each and every customer received a quality product. Additionally,I extended this offer, that if anyone purchased a TB from me and needed additional hardware I would send it to them no charge and I have. I have also repaired throttle bodies for others when they have purchased them elsewhere.

BaBolt will treat you exactly as he stated above. His attentoin to detail is second to none that I've seen, just check out anything he has done. He sent mine to me with the way i wanted, which was with the new screws so that I could have it polished. If you are thinking about getting something that he is making you can't go wrong, except waiting until his intrests have moved on to bigger and better things. here is a pic of the polished trottle body off the motor.
