which mod?

the very first post where you shave it down and smooth it out

 

[TylerZ281500]

Itnshould I don't see why it wouldn't. Just make sure that when you shave it that it's still flat on that mounting surface so you aren't putting any strain on the aluminum pod. Then when the trucks running again id look at the spray with the air cleaner off to make sure it's making it in the throttle bore

What was the final gritt you used

 

[TylerZ281500]

if the OP doesnt post in i used my dremel with the cutoff wheel, ground that all and yes i do have lower spots, then i took the belt sander with a few different fine-very fine papers, then brass wheeled it till it shined then buffed the piss out of it.

ok thats basically how i did mine started with a dremel just didnt seem to come out the way i wanted thanks for the info

I used a 50 grit sanding wheel fer the rough out then a course 80 grit polishing wheel. If u don't have an air grinder, a dremel will work just fine.

When you put it all back together do you need to torque the bolts that hold the TBI unit down? If so to what, and what about the injector pod just till its snug or you need to torque that down too?

I just snuged em down, but torque to spec is better. Any Haynes manual will give the correct specs
