BBK-TB-Is the throttle blade replaceable?

[poboys 94]

I have a BBK-65MM TB that I drilled a hole in the throttle blade when I couldnt get the car to idle way back when, Ive since did the Fox swap and want to sell the BBK but Id like to repair it first, it has 2 screws that hold it on EDIT- never mind BBk wont sell a blade looks like I got to have it brazed.

They are replaceable (good luck finding a replacement blade though)

The screws have been crimped on the end to keep them from coming un-screwed while on the car. You'll have to un-crimp them before removal, and find new screws to put the new blade on. Be sure to re-crimp. It wouldn't be cool to lose 2 screws into your engine!|


Honestly, I'd just find someone with a mig welder and a little spot weld should take care of it. I'd carefully smooth out the weld then just so it'd be flat again and not look like a ghetto fix.

Yeah I just found that out, they dont sell repalcement blades for exactly that reason, liability issues. They suggested I have the hole brazed.
