Thumbs up oval bore throttle body

Read in 5.0 mag that Pauls High Performance is producing an Oval Throttle Body for current Lightnings like FRPP's for Cobra's.
Supposed to be good for 5-8 rwhp.
Every little bit helps.

I believe that BABolt had done one of the first dyno runs at Pauls with the Oval T-B and showed that gain. The one that Paul is offering looks just like the FRP product.

A quote from BaBolt

It is a pure bolt on about 15 minutes to install. I take the Ford Motorsport oval throttle body and install the Lightning throttle lever. When I tested it I saw 6.2 horsepower and 6.4 foot lbs. of torque.

Oh. By the why I did do the dyno testing with the oval throttle body and reported a hp and torque increase. I also modified them and offered them for sale. My price was too low so except for a few people who asked about them I am done.

Hey Guys,

Anybody offering a single bore throttle body is in fact offering the FRP product.Myself included.Making them Lightning ready basicly involves switching out the existing throttle lever(cam)with a Lightning throttle lever(cam).For more information post me.I'll get back asap!
