  • throttle body

    What kind of throttle bodies work to upgrade the SVO? 87-93? Just 94-95? Just off Mustangs.....does anybody have a list of compatable parts that we can scrounge up in the junkyards? What are the best ones and how big are they?

    There is a difference in voltage?

    there are a lot of us out there looking for cheap horsepower!!

    Well here's what I know:
    94-95 GT Throttlebody. You have to mount it upsidedown and either buy or make an adaptor plate to bolt it up.

    87-93 V8 Throttlebody. The Idle Air Motor has clearence issues, not sure if a adaptor plate is needed ir not.

    Explorer V8 Throttle body. I think it is just like the 87-93 Mustang one.

    ThunderBird Super Coupe. Some people use them, no idea what mods are requiered.

      I run the 94-95 TB off a 5-oh....No one has yet to determine that it makes HP...but it sure as sin increass throttle response a TON.

      An adapter plate for this can be made or ordered through Tiny Avenger. it will come with the plates, all the hardware and a connector for the TPS.

      Some people adapt it by enlarging the holes bigger on the TB to make up for the difference, and then make a longer IC hose to fit. You will also need to open the port on the manifold....and be careful, she gets a little thin on top.

      Im not sure about the other TB's but there are a few running the Supercoupe ones.

        hey, Lonchair...Gator What are the sizes on the TB you listed? How big would you go on an SVO with stock head and cam? Right now I still have the stock inline intake. Waiting for Bob's log manifold. Would it be worth getting a gutted latemodel intake if I am still using a stock head and cam (84 SVO) and stock DP? The car is pretty much original...TC IC, no cat,wrapped stock DP.
