Fresh off the flow bench

Henry Schmidt · Henry Schmidt's Garage

These throttle bodies were re-manufactured by Supertec for our friends at CPR.
The new coating is propitiatory and designed to closely replicate the factory finish.
Built by Supertec but available from 911 Vintage Parts in Fallbrook, California

Beautiful, Henry.

I have a set that are probably ready for a refresh. They were rebuilt 20 years ago.

Just curious. What was done to these throttle bodies to warrant a test on a flow bench; aero mods to throttle shafts, knife edged throttle blades, enlarged/reshaped throttle bores?

Running the throttle bodies on the flow bench is a way to guarantee proper fitment of all the components and balance them before installation. It can be incredibly difficult/ time consuming to balance the throttles after installation.

OK. A high-end Synchrometer/Unisyn in effect, but w/o the need for an attached engine. Cool.

What is the extra brass tube at the end?

Vacuum port.

Vacuum for distributor advance...at least that's where it's pulled from on my 72.

Second set for CPR completed in less than 7 days.
Our goal is to have at least one set of each variety on the shelf at 911 Vintage Parts.
If we don't have your model on the shelf, our goal will be a two week turn around for stock and special application throttle housing.
