Purchased brand new from Tony Mamo and ran for 6 weeks. Now traded in car and so this is up for sale. Paid $390, asking $335 shipped.
My only regret about the Mamo throttle body is that I didn't do it the day I got the car. Fundamentally positively changes the driving experience. I looked into whether the throttle body makes a noticeable difference on an LT1 before I did it, and I can tell you that it does! Cold starts are louder (real bark now), downshifts on highway are quicker, intake noise is cleaner. Takes about 10 minutes and basic hand tools to install. All around win for the money spent.
It's an OEM throttle body that Tony takes and machines, not sure he has his own part number on it. It's the "LT1" spec, though I am not sure if its the same milling/machining for the LT4.
I ask because GM has released a newer part numbe for these TB's. Tony buys new TB direct from GM so if it's a 2018 purchase, I assume it will be the newer part number. PN will be on side of part if you can confirm

Oh, OK. I will take a look tonight and post up a picture. This was purchased 6 weeks ago, so I am pretty sure its the newer part number.
It's a good 7 week wait time when ordering direct from Tony as he makes these to order. Here's a chance to pickup a new one for much less and have it right away.
Here's the part number. Unbelievable how much the classifieds get cluttered with vendor bumps. Dang, I just posted this today and it's already lost in the second page.
The different part numbers are simply different vendors GM outsources from but the parts are technically the same.
For the record I don't think TB's have ever been 7 weeks out except when GM ran out of stock.....more typical is 1-2 weeks and I have been working diligently on my quest to have inventory and zero lag in shipping (a few days perhaps).
No tune required....plug and play....15 min install taking your time.

Tell us about the differences in your ported TB for LT1 & LT4 please.
Thanks
You can run an LT1 unit on an LT4 and not have any computer trouble (codes thrown etc.) but you will give up some performance doing so. You cant however go the other way around (LT4 installed on an LT1)....not with a stock tune at least.
Bottom line is I port them differently for each application as they both have different airflow requirements based on the OEM tune Im having to always work around as 90% of the customers purchasing are just looking for a plug and play upgrade
Hope it helps

Tony,
Thank you for the quick reply.
Are there any markings on your ported throttle bodies to let us know if we are buying a used one that it is the real deal and is truly your product?

Tony is great to get this stuff has a eye for detail for sure, plus stand behind his stuff..I just sold one for this same price had to put the stock one back onto my car. You sure can tell a diff in the feel of the car for sure. Robert
