Randy, here’s a pic of some standard Borla throttle bodies. You’ll notice they are significantly shorter than the Weber style TB’s. Car is a ‘56 Lincoln.
Re: non-boosted brakes - I tried simply eliminating the booster but my pedal was just too heavy. I believe the problem was, the Pantera’s brake pedal is too short to give adequate leverage. SACC has a Wilwood pedal kit which gives the correct leverage for non-boosted brakes.
