Easy question that I can't find the answer to.

- Thu Mar 03, 2011 8:42 pm #242067 What are the four bolts (more like studs) called that hold the throttle body and intake manifold together? There are also another three of the same bolts that hold the fuel rail to the intake manifold.


I recently bought a new intake manifold and throttle body. Auto Zone had no clue what they were called (I scrolled through the whole computer with them), and I can't find what they are actually called on the internet. Everybody just calls them "the four bolts that hold the throttle body to the intake manifold.

Also I need a bigger transition coupler for my blackworks 68mm TB. For a 68mm would 3" be the right size to use?


Thanks for reading my question :thumb:

and the fuel rail are 10mm.

92900-08035-1B BOLT, STUD (8X35)
[CIVIC | 1993 | 3DR SI | KA 5MT] 4 0.76 3.04

94050-08080 NUT, FLANGE (8MM)
[CIVIC | 1993 | 3DR SI | KA 5MT] 4 0.18 0.72


also what manifold did you get? for a 68mm yes a 3" coupler will be needed. depending on that Intake manifold you have like skunk2 will be closer to the fire wall. your going to need a 3" coupler with a 45 degree bend.

I just need the 2.5" - 3" transition coupler to couple the turbo ducting and throttle body.

I have an OBX intake manifold. The TB should bolt right onto the side of the intake manifold with the TB gasket in between, no coupler needed.



Background info. I just got a blackworks 68mm TB, OBX intake mani (port matched), new full port and polish b16a head, skunk2 double springs, skunk2 valves, skunk2 retainers, bisimoto lvl 2.4 camshafts, bisimoto cam gears, and all the other little things to make it work. I'm really excited to get it going.
