fd throttle body on a 20B?

I swear I just read someone was doing this due to larger secondaries or something on the fd tb. I can't remeber where or I saw or read it , or even if I did for that matter. Am I high? Just need to have this settled.
thx

the bolt patterns are the same, the bac passage is slightly different, and needs to be blocked or something.

I thought the FD TB didn't have the front set of butterfly plates like the FC and cosmo motors?
I just stuck with the 20B TB and did the TB mod to it.

20B primary bore is slightly larger, but the primary throttle plate is identical in dimesions as the FD 13B-REW primary throttle plate.

I measured with a caliper myself.

So are the secondaries larger also. I would assume so, but I do not have a 13brew tb to compare with.
