3F & NZ throttle bodies

Post by hardhitter »

Hopefully someone can answer this for me.

Does the throttle body from the NZ have a larger bore and butterflies, compared to the 3F ?
I know they use a different throttle system for the injection as they are digijet. I'm more interested in the size difference.

Thanks

Here's a pic Mark H took, I think the order from left to right is G40 (easy one that!), 3F, NZ.

I guess you'd best speak to Mark, I don't reckon there's that much difference really. There looks to be a similar amount of material on both of them, so if you're getting it ported anyway maybe the 3F one's good enough?
