Gear lash. Maybe better to check it with the blade roughly at 90 degrees. If you hold the blade at a given position, on stock 90s you can wiggle it slightly back and forth before you feel significant resistance.

 

Now go try it because I need a 102 for mine come next season. Well I need it now but she is parked for year.

 

The snout need to be opened up because the blade will not open so it is gonna be awhile

 

Anyone have any good ideas on who i could open up the snout nicely? I have a dremel tools and several other grinding tools but i would like todo it with a littler precision.

I have thought about taking the snout to a machine shop to see what they could do for me.

 

Take it to a machine shop...

 

That is what i want todo.


In the meantime to test the TB is actually gonna eork and not **** up the snout. I bought this adapter. It was only $26 so a fairly cheap way to test

LS 4 Bolt Thottle Body Adapter - 92mm Intake Manifold to 102mm Throttle Body

 

Rob has his snout opened up I believe. Not sure how he went about it.

 

I think his came that way

 

Can you pull the snout off and take some pics of exactly where you need the machine work done? Or if you already have some pics email them to me. I can get you fixed up with the machine work.

mine was machined prior to me owning it.

The adapter should add enough depth to make it work.
