Hi; guys i need a H/O throttle body. im doing the gt40 intake swap and the stock 50mm 88 cougar 5.0 TB is to small. it needs to be in good shape and from a Automatic car only. i have a 65mm explorer TB but linkage is wrong. i heard you can change linkage to make it work? how is this done?

you remove the linkage and use the fox linkage but it has to be welded on

I have a stock 5.0 TB hanging around if you are interested. I have to dig it out and get a pic.

Here are a few pics: I believe the stock HO TB is 60 mm. AOD and manual TB's are the same. The TV linkage fits into the bushing you see on the end of the linkage in the 2nd pic. Hit me up with a price if you are interested.

I have a 65mm from an explorer that has been modified for a fox linkage. Came off a 1989 mark vii. Let me know if you're interested.
