Default throttle body adaptation??

Dumb question here and I'm pretty sure someone will chime in with a replace the intake mani. But I don't want to. So is there a problem with building an adapter to bolt an H.O. throttle body to my renix manifold? Or does anyone offer such a thing? And if it is feesible to do what kind of wiring weird stuff will I need to do? I'm tired of dickin around with adjustable TPS issues!

Yeah. It's a waste of time when you can get a 60mm Renix bored throttle body with the corresponding larger butterfly for $90 exchange from www.strokedjeep.com.
The hole in your mani is alraedy 60mm and if you mess with the HO throttle body, you'll have to make a TPS adapter or buy one from Hesco for $180.

Cool thanks. I'm just tired of messin with adjustable tps setup. Seems like I have issues at least once a year. So I just leave it unplugged now, runs way better after the motor warms up.
