Step 5 Remove the seven (7) torque head screws from the water crossover manifold on the bottom of the stock throttle
body and transfer over to the new throttle body using the supplied gasket, and supplied screws.
! CAUTION !
Screws may thread tightly at bottom of travel – be sure the

body using the existing screws. (See Diagram for modifications which may be necessary to TPS after unit is
installed on vehicle and TPS reading is verified.) (Tuned Port sensors are factory slotted.)
Step 7 Reinstall new throttle body to the manifold using the supplied gaskets and bolts and torque to factory
specification.
Step 8 Check the TPS voltage reading with a digital voltmeter and adjust to the factory specification.
Step 9 Reinstall the negative terminal, refill the coolant tank to allow for lost coolant and start vehicle. Idle adjustment is
