Semi TB Mod?????

Can I just remove all the Coolant lines without removing the Thermo wax crap or is it all or nothing?

The thermo wax wouldn't really open fully or something then right?

BTW I'm in Arizona where in the summer it hits 110-120`f and like 40`f at the lowest in thw winter if that affects anything.

You will see when you have the TB off that removing the thermowax is easy.

Oops - is the TII already in? - Wrong picture - But you get the idea.
With the coolant circuit capped, it's just in the way.

ok, doesn't look hard.

The engine isn't in yet. May be in this weekend.

Any hoses I'll have to cap? since the thermo won't be there?

You'll need to "tie back" the fast idle cam, or it's going to jam all the time giving you a 2,000 to 3,000 RPM idle.

Damn now I'm gonna have ti search for the Tb mod thread.

I'm not going to remove the secondary butterflies. Just removing the coolant lines because I'm lazy and don't want to get new hoses and stuff since my NA Bac hoses face the wrong way.
