I checked with my son who is a regular Amazon customer and he said yes, in Kentucky where they have a physical presence they collect sales tax. Means an extra $21 and change for me but still a pretty good deal I suppose.

Yep. I've not purchased any major engine components from them but for instance I needed a pigtail for one of the front lights. Was $25+ at most places online and at the local auto parts stores. Less than $8 on Amazon. I completely understand overhead and that brick and mortar places need a little bit more to pay bills, but some of the prices compared to Amazon are egregiously out of line.

Currently its out right now being ported.

Bad way to do business in my opinion ...
I bought a brand new throttle body for a reason. Not so that I get back a high mileage throttle body...

He even enclosed a slip that showed the numbers after porting. Btw, when I spoke to him he said he has some new ones on hand that he keeps ported for his exchange customers.

I sent Pete my new one, he ported it and sent it back to me. I told him that's what I wanted. How do I know he did it that way? Secret markings. He even enclosed a slip that showed the numbers after porting.
