Default RE: changing out tb

Dan should send you one. But, if you do reuse your current one or buy your own, you will need to trim it since the TB is now bored. I once took my Fastman TB off for cleaning, and replaced the gasket with a new one from the dealership. It whistled like crazy because the OEM gasket had smaller openings then my Fastman TB, and was protruding into the bores, causing a whistle noise when air passed by it. I took it out, trimmed it up to match the Fastman, and that took care of it.
