Another bad throttle body

[ziggy1805]

I have searched here and elsewhere for a solution to the unobtanium 87 Turbo Coupe throttle body problem. Like so many, mine has wobbly shafts.

There are many threads on substituting tb from 5.0 as well as many others. I have even looked at those that replaced with stock (ages ago) TBs but have not seen another with 2 butterfys as mine has. I am including a pic of my setup hoping someone can advise me what will work with the least amount of modifications.

Did some dyno pulls last week and am doing 250 RWHP and 300 RWT on my mild 2.3.

TIA

If you look inside that throttle body, you should find that there are not two butterflies.

The 94-95 Mustang GT throttle body is the easiest "non-2.3" unit to use. A 2.3 TB is obviously easiest to use.

Thanks for the reply Shannon.

What has to be modified to use that throttle body?

You have to re-drill one hole and slot two others, then move the cable mount back one hole.
