Gilt2 Posted January 8, 2011 Report Share Posted January 8, 2011 Has anyone tried to install a stock GT500 60mm throttle on a 4.6 3V 2005/2009? I dont have the money for a 62mm Ford Racing throttle body. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L&M Airflow Systems has a 62mm TB direct bolt on that flows 1500CFM supports 1000hp.No other 62mm TB comes close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kahmann Posted March 4, 2011 Report Share Posted March 4, 2011 For the money, the GT500 TB isn't a bad upgrade. However, you definitely need the adapter plate to make it a simple install. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gilt2 Posted April 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2011 Update,***** I got the spacer from BBR, install simple, total cost was only $106.00. I did switch from FRPP CAI to a C&L racer CAI. Also removed the butterflys from the intake ( 2009 model ) Very crisp and smoth running now.
