Would someone please take a measurement on the thickness of the throttle body blade with some calipers or digital calipers and try to get them as accurate as possible.

I would prefer them in milimeters

List the brand and size of the throttle body.

Thanks!

88mouse - Either

Droptop5.0L - I am just working on a couple computations and I also want to see the difference in blade thickness between the different manufacturers.

Also if possible, get the thickness of the blade shaft.

Factory off of a 89 gt vert. 60.09mm on the back side. 62.67mm on the front side and a step down about a half inch before the blade that takes it from 62 to 60. Doesn't change the fact that the blade is 1.5mm tho.

Sn-95s have 60mm and the Cobras included.

'93 Cobras came with a 65mm throttle body.

Stock fox size is 58mm for '86s and 60mm for '87-'93 (not Cobra).
