Any sort of power tools makes it tolerable. Just imagine doing one by hand tho, it would have to suck.

Yes, but only if you use the HO upper intake to go with it. Using the larger throttle body and spacer on a stock lopo upper won't do much good. The opening in the end of the lopo upper is much smaller than the HO size spacer is86 Lincoln Town Car (Galactica).

Fuck. I've been reading up on swapping the upper intake, tb, but I don't think there's a snowballs chance in hell of me swapping the linkage on the TBs correctly. I don't even know where to start, and chances are pretty good I don't have the tools for it. can't weld.sigpic

Why don't you ask Scott how much he'd charge to do it and ship your parts to him?
Then you'd have the piece of mind of knowing it was done right.
Don't know what your budget is, but I bet Scott could put a whole assemly together for you if you asked.Former panther owner

Just the arm on the throttle body is what we call the linkage.

There's another thread on this in the tech section, I found this pic there. It showes what Pirate was telling you regarding drilling new holes instead of switching the leavers.
