I'll give you a tip mate dont bother trying to weld the TB theyre only die cast and quality of alloy makes it difficult on top of that they warp quite easy then it even worse.

Best bet is to make block of plates and from what ive seen on bored out ones they fill the holes with what looks like quicksteel then bore it out

thanks mate im in the middle of putting 2 vn 60mm on ive cut the iac off and plugged the holes with metel mend. in theory vn ones are smaller and would make it more pokey off the mark and more driveable instead of giving it a gut full of air and a headache. i could only imagine what 2 70mm from mace would do. lol

sounds like a beast man. i put blue tops in better up top little laggy down low to rich. i ran to mafs piggy backed the loom and it ran bad and wouldnt rev over 3000 wondering if i could put a resistor in to half the voltage? the reason being i want 1 maf and 1 trottle body and put another flange on the airbox and run the same on the other tb and maf to unrestrict the air flow. 2 tb's to 1 maf doesnt work. like say 2.5 inch zorst to stock whats the point. and my mate decided to put an ecotec in his vn so we did and we running it of the series 1 buick loom and ecu and series 1 auto it runs great once he gets the kickdown cable bracket bugs out well bolt my twin throtts on and should go well. hangs a wicked black line with no brakes
