58mm Throttle Body
I just bought a new BBK 58mm Throttle Body but I cant get that darn accordian air tube to fit over it. Anyone have an easy way to put it on?

Haven't done it, but what about heating it first and then slip it over?

I figured that the 58mm cant't hurt me and it was only like $20 more than the 52mm. It will also allow for future mods.
