Talked to the man with an engineering background in Flowmetrics Bruce
Bridges of F&B. He has already worked on this device and changed not only
the inlet flow but added a new stack on the stock version trying to correct
the idle problems. The TB looked very intimidating.
The F&B beta is not the final product but a testing version. The F&B TB will
be a billet version of the 4.7 TB that requires no honing, porting, or mods.
It is a complete TB ready to run. The final product may gain over 60
percent from the 65MM version.

Subject: DML: 68MM TB
Woo hoo!
Just ordered the 68MM TB for my 2000 4.7 Dak. I plan on taking the 65mm unit
and seeing if I can mod it similar to what Quick-D is doing. If it works, I
will then do the 68MM the same way. I could have Quick-D do it but I want
to dig in and learn something. Any advice from those who have done this type
of modicication would be greatly appriciated.
