These Throttle bodies are really nice, especially with the needle bearings for
the shaft.  Pick up any Mustang magazine and you will see a zillion
advertisements for these things, from a low of about $170 up to about $250
depending on size, which can range from 60MM for a stock piece to 90MM.  I would
recommend the 70MM for up to 350 HP.  Remember, larger is not necessarily better
due to the loss of velocity.  I just bought 2 50MM (2 inch) Ford throttle bodies
off mid-80's Crown Vics at a local jujnk yard for $20 apiece to use on Paul and
my PP experiment.
