The base to top height dimension is 3″ tall. This throttle body has no idle air control provision. Also, it’s designed to use a Ford style 5.0L 1986-1993 Mustang pigtail style throttle position sensor, sold separately.
Also a bolt-on throttle body for any 4500 intake manifold, however, the intake plenum directly under the throttle body may need to be chamfered a little (with a hand grinder) to accommodate the air flow of the 2 1/2″ throttle bores. Please note, some machining or grinding required to widen the upper area inside of a cast intake manifold plenum to clear the 2.56″ diameter throttle body blades.
Better Air Flow for More Power. The Accufab 6500 series 4-barrel throttle body uses 2.56-inch bores and flows 2,656 CFM at 28-inch
- The Accufab 6500 throttle body is made from 6061-T6 billet aluminum and polished to an eye-catching finish. Accufab’s quality is second to none! Only the best components are used for unparalleled reliability and performance. Each throttle body weighs 4 pounds, compared to up to 13-pounds for a big 4500 series carburetor. Manufactured in the USA.
Application: This throttle body may be used with either EFI or mechanical fuel injection. For an EFI application, the throttle body is CNC machined to use a Ford Mustang 5.0L 1986-1993 throttle position sensor (TPS). However, Accufab has an optional accessory to help adapt this Ford style TPS provision to be used with GM electronics instead. For example, we offer a TPS adapter to use your GM TPS.
Accessories Included: 6500 throttle body base and round top gaskets.
