FI Project - Built ZC Throttle body???
 

Man I love how the new site is set up. Very informative etc.

Great job guys.


MY question is this: What Throttle Body are you using on the built ZC you just mention GM...? 80mm how can I tell which ones will work on a custom manifold?

THX going to yard in 5 hours.... :)

they come on the newer c5 vettes, and some of the newer trucks (denali's/escalades), highly doubt you will see one in the junkyard.

the newer ones are controlled by wire (electronic) this is a manual one.

Try ebay...

How much did you pay for it?

*cough free cough* ;)

Lucky you

Re:FI Project - Built ZC Throttle body???
 

So this essential will work. What does the other side look like that attaches to the intake mani?

Does it have a TPS like ours? or do we have to put one on?

Any idea what one would be workth from dealer? Or one off ebay?

The biggest one at wrecker was small haha.

Maybe a dual d16 T body setup would be cool.... I wonder how hard that would be? You could just weld rod etc. to the two things.

I;ll make up some plans and post back here...

just get an 80mm exhaust pipe and cut the old housing off the TB and tig on the new one..

:P

Re:FI Project - Built ZC Throttle body???
 

haha.... how bought not...... more to it then that. I have a copycat version of The built ZC manifold. almost the same only mine has no hole or anything cut for the throttle body. I could rig up to tho maybe

and have dual intakes and BOV :) haha

Re:FI Project - Built ZC Throttle body???
 

uhm why cant you bore out a zc one..
i mean even 70mm would be good enough. 80 is just overdoing it.

Re:FI Project - Built ZC Throttle body???
 

umm what cae you bore a d16 one too? I havent looked at mine lateyl. But im not goinna spend 50 bucks on a ZXC one and have it not work. I can get a d16 one tho...

anyone know what you can bore it to?

Stock is what 56mm?

Re:FI Project - Built ZC Throttle body???
 

You can only bore factory D-series out to like 58-60mm (correct me if I am wrong Jim) That is why I used the godzilla Throttle body, plus I have never seen a ------- monster like that on a honda, hah. I had a guy weld up the idle air control passage on the t-body and smooth it out. I will be using the factory 3 wire GM TPS, it should work just fine.

Duel TB's? hmmm someone is smoking the good shiet.. ;)

ya I saw that 60 mm max on theoldone.com i think....

And im pretty sure he knows his shiot..

Ya man that thing is kinda a conversation piece. I can only amagine how big that is in real life. well next to the pop can and all. haah

dual t body setup impossible?


Oh ya and is the say 4mm you gain from boring a d series Tbody is it worth it?

Re:FI Project - Built ZC Throttle body???
 

You should talk to Jhill he is the T-body man..

www.proflowdesign.com

I think they gained like 12hp on a blown S2000 from a 4mm gain from one of his Bored Throttle bodys.
