I seem to still have the standard throttle body in my garage... should I give it to my brother to have big bore'd (e36 M42 engine though if there's a difference in throttle body)? Or would it be of any use to an E30 owner for some reason?

Ԛ£120 for the bb wasn't it?

Can I buy it? or shall I convert it to a big bore body for you?

Sorry for the delay...

Either way it's no use to me. I'll ask my brother if he wants to convert it - how much?

not a clue, it's only standard so is really only useful to someone who doesn't want to wait whilst there's is big bored?
