I want to use the 7m-ge throttle body on my engine so i can get rid of the unsightly throttle bracket over the valve covers that needs to be used with the turbo TB.
Could i just fab the bracket on the n/a TB so that my existing throttle cable will work on it?
Also could i use a regular vac port in place on the top vac port on the GTE TB since the GE one only has 1 vac source.

thanks!

i ended up cutting and welding the throttle cable bracket so i could use the existing cable.
Then i took the part from the n/a TB where the cable hooks on to, and swapped it for the same piece on the turbo TB which the rod connects to.
Throttle opens all the way, and looks a lot cleaner without that bracket on top of the valve covers.
pics tonite!
