Man Jarrod, either you know what you're doing or you got some big
balls!!!! I could never "yank" out the tbi on mine and just start
grinding, not without a spare tbi nearby.... And you got a '97 too!
Not a dinasaur '93 like mine.... :^) Hope you don't have to take it in
for warranty work anytime soon, dealer would have a field day with that
mod....<LOL>

I hope everything works out for ya. I'm looking forward to seeing your
pictures of it too. Maybe now we will have the FABM (Fresh Air By
Meldrum) AND the PTBI (Pilone Throttle Body...)
