Help Installing Throttle Body on Carrera
I have an enlarged throttle body that I'm planning to install on my 85'. Haven't found any help in the Bentley. What items will I want to replace when I take the old throttle body off? I was expecting to find a gasket that goes between the body and intake, but couldn't find one here at pelican. The throttle body I had bored out was bought used. Should I put any of the switches on from the old throttle body? Thanks in advance.

There is a round rubber gasket from the throttle body to the intake. And it's pretty plug and play - although you will probably need a chip (steve wong) to take advantage of any increase in Air///

This look like the right part?
http://www.pelicanparts.com/cgi-bin/smart/imgdsply.cgi?pn=99970112440-M17 Pelican says its from throttle body to airbox. But that doesn't make a lot of sense since they aren't connected. Quote:

You can see the slot for the o-ring in the top of my intake manifold
