With a 12v TB ya gotta sleeve after you bore - unless you use epoxy.

Otherwise you will have huge holes in the side of the throttle body. 'Tis what makes these TBs such a bitch.

Somebody correct me if I've missed another method.

Lloyd did it cheap way....he just used a grinder to take off some material he could....

and make it slightly larger. But you are right, if you want to do it right you have to use one of the 2 and have machine do it and not by hand like I did couple times, though I was real close as far as "perfect round" goes.

Btw, nice cras out there!
