Debate? Usually the definition of depate includes argue and dispute. Why would anyone want to do that? Not me please. I simply had a fellow whose name I cannot remember, who stated that the SVO intake would work better with the upper section opened up to accepy a single blade TB. Knowledge is what I an interested in. I would hardly have the intake machined and then add a $XXX. Accufab single blade when there are many more cost effective mods that can be done. Knowledge for knowledge's sake is a good thing in my opinion.
I have a friend who says something like "quench at .040" works so who cares why it does". Well I do That's why I have 134 credit hours at a 2 year school. Working on my Masters, funny, huh? Makes watching Jeopardy a bit more enjoyable!

As far as the Lincoln TB it is a progressive opening unit. Apparently Ford knew that the "B" Heads were too big and tried to compensate with the MMRC deal and this TB. Again, being the curious type I was wondering what this TB might offer IF it could be adapted to the intake, that's all.
This a forum. Let's discuss as if we are Mustang enthusiasts who enjoy the restoration, modification and general enhancement of our driving experience with these cars and in the process learn about them and help those who have less knowlkedge than some of the more experienced guys as I would hope everyone is still doing no matter how much they know. It seems that a single blade TB is actually better in cercumstances where the power levels are quite high, probably with a power adder. THX.
PS: BraMas, I agree with your statement above about the mods required before a single blade "could" be a help. THX

Sweet99 sorry I didn't read your post my ADHD kicked in on the 3rd sentence I stopped reading.
But my earlier post wasn't directed at you I was just stating I was gonna get into an Internet fight on what a waste a TB on a stock engine was that is all
