BBK 58mm throttle body, 1LE elbow, Pass side t-top
First things first and I want this to be very clear so there is no misunderstanding:
The TB is damaged but will not affect the operation of the unit on a naturally aspirated or nitrous oxide motor
Now, with being said I was using this TB on a forced induction motor and with having to clamp the t-bolt to keep from blowing the intake elbow off I cracked the mouth of the TB. I tired to bend it back out and a piece broke off of it. I put my 1LE elbow on it and it still seals fine but I going to go with the summit one that has a thicker sidewall. I will also throw in the brass collar I made to help improve the idle quality that some have problems with on the aftermarket TBs. No sensors are included though they are pictured and I will throw in a new gasket cut to fit. $220 + shipping
The 1LE elbow has a hole that was drilled for a nitrous nozzle but has since been sealed up. $30 + shipping Sold
If someone buys the elbow and the TB I will pay shipipng in the US
Ive run both of these on my car to make sure they operate properly and I got no idle surge. I also sprayed carb cleaner around the area to make sure there are no leaks so you can rest assured it will operate fine.
I also have a Pass side t-top that I need to get rid of. Very smooth handle operation. Tinted, not dot matrix. $175 + shipping

It slides in the Idle air port on the front of the intake and into the back of the TB to make sure as much air as possible makes it into the idle air passage of the intake

Just to help you out I have the same throttle body and it's so thin that mine has broke just like yours but in another position.
To all potential buyers this will not affect the way your car runs what so ever.
I've had mine for years now and have had no problems even on the spray.
Check my sig below for my times.
Good luck on the sale.
