RE: 16v throttle body on an 8v intake??

[Greg Baxter <gbaxter@istar.ca>]

Yep, the 16v will fit exactly. It's what I've got on mine (82) now. The 
only thing that I had to do was get a 16v paper gasket, and dremel for 
about half an hour. (Wear ear protection!) The guy I bought it from showed 
me the 16v & the Neuspeed TBs side by side, and they were identical except 
for the 'Neuspeed' logo.

Enjoy!

  As the subject line says...will a 16v TB fit an 8v intake without any
modification other than dremeling the intake to open it up?? Is the large
venturi as large as the Neuspeed?? I have access to one and it will not 
cost
me. So, all you gurus....let me know. It'll save me taking the Neuspeed 
offa
my GLi.
