Does anyone know why my 65mm throttle body says both BBK and Edelbrock?

^interesting. So they are 1 company but use both names ? That is odd, i guess they did it to keep both good names around....

^ a lot of companies merge and maintain the original names for marketing sake, our company caries over 20 brand names for various products that have very minor differences, they are just distributed by different vendors in different countries and such.

I do believe that was a minor typo, the 60mm is 2.3625", 70mm is 2.7560" so its not a massive difference. But the 94-95 came with 60mm TB's.
