Idk but when you put them side to side you can see where they bore it out. Where the throttle plate is its 68.5 stock but befor it looks like 64 or 65mm.

the throttle body is fantastic. There definitely was something wrong with the one Bobby had cause this one has no idle issues. Steady as a rock.
