Default Throttle Body

I put an 01 beta in my accent and i had the head ported and polished to gasket match i also had the runners on the intake opened up some too. but i saw somewhere about putting a mustang throttle body on a 2.0 does anyone know if i need and adapter for it and what year would be beneficial im trying to do the bbtb. i also know that ill have to have the opening bored out to match the throttle body. i just need to know year of mustang and if i need an adapter and where i can get it if i do.

mines from a 98 crown vic with a 4.6 liter lol

so basically anything with a round throttle body and a 4.6 liter motor

get the pig tail also, youll need it to wire it in

some throttle bodies have a idle hole on the butterfly that will need to be sealed shut, and you will have to adjust it to read "0"

i dont think you understand here

NONE of this is a bolt on affair

every aspect will need to be altered

from how it bolts on to the intake manifold to how the throttle cable connects to the throttle body

the tib tps will not work

you will have to cut and solder the wires for the tps

and realize you will probably lose some bottom end if your still NA 65mm is a rather large jump (iirc the stocker is like 53mm)

Or I can sell you an HVE bbtb 58mm for $100 shipped and it will bolt right on no modification, with stock tps.

Not sure how many of them you have in the state, but someone here in the UK fitted a VAG TB, went onto existing inlet manifold with only minor modification.
