I have this throttle body and have some questions about it. It appears to be a dominator flange, made from billet and really nice bearings on the throttle shafts. it has progressive linkage.
Is it a Whipple piece?
What is the CFM
What size are the injectors?
Can I remove the injectors, plug the holes and run it on a N/A mpi setup?
What is it worth?
Anyone looking for one?

I have one that looks allot like it. It came with a HP 500 EFI whipple kit. I believe Whipple purchased these from Accel and modified them for the extra injectors. They also cut the top and bottom off to provide more clearance for twin engine installations. I think this would have an adverse effect on flow but the bores are so large that it probably would not matter. If you are interested in selling it let me know, as I only have one and a twin engine boat. I had purchased one from another OSO member for $175 shipped but he backed out after I paid for it (he claimed it was damaged beyond repair but had never noticed the damage until he went to ship it).

I just went back and looked at the pictures of the one I paid for from [email protected] and what do you know... it looks like the same part, even the same fuel fittings for the extra injectors with the little bit of paint left on the valve. It is too bad there are people like that in the world.
