WTB: early 16v throttle body
while adding my LH spider i have heard that the throttle moves are reversed. so I'm looking for a used 16v throttle body i can use for linkage testing... nothing fancy, just need the throttle brackets....

Just realized it was you Ducman. If you want the 78-79 cams I could just send it all together.

Will this work? Not pretty, but everything is there.

Jake, are you sure you need to reverse this? I went from an L-jet to a Euro TB and the things that needed work was the WOT switch. The linkage was just fine.
Does it have to do with the spider itself?

Ducman82, just so we are clear. What I was telling you the other day was that I was able to use a TB from an 85-86 32v engine with a Euro S plenum, but I had to use parts of the linkage from a standard 16v TB on the 32v TB to make it work. The reason I was using 32v TB was because it was the same diameter as the Euro plenum. The US 16v TB was a smaller diameter. If you have the TB that goes with Euro S spider you won't have to worry about swapping the linkage.
