Weld on 90 Degree Elbow on Mustang TB

[jazzyjay]

Is it easier/best to weld on a cast 90 Elbow on to a Mustang throttle body or to weld the normal mandrel 90 elbow on to it. Starting to have problems with coupler blowing off

You can weld a standoff on your pipe and tb, and just use a threaded brace to keep the stress off the coupler. I have the FFTEC BBK throttle body and it has yet to blow off on me. We boost leak tested it to 45psi with no problems.

That one was specifically for an evo, which is why that brace is on that part. Mine was done just a touch diff.
