I have a 17 GT, and I know that 18+ TB won't work, but what if I swap the throttle controls from the side of the throttle body? Are they interchangeable?

Even if it did work the '18 TB will give you zero performance increase. This holds true for the GT350 TB as well.

Really wasn't a question about performance... rather functionality.

Why? Seriously why? If your intent wasn't to increase the performance, WTF is the point?

I don't think I have to explain anything to you. I appreciate your input, but it doesn't address my question. If you can answer the question please do, otherwise it is best you move on to a different post, as my question did not ask about performance gains.

They physically look the same. So it's possible the internals are interchangeable

When I did a GT350 manifold swap I went back with the stock TB per Lund recommendation. Who needs to fight drivability/possible surging issues for maybe a 5 hp gain? OP stay with the stock TB. There are a ton of old threads on this subject if you research.

@op for the benefit of future readers of the thread, what is the purpose of swapping the TB out? What functionality does an 18+ tb give?
Excellent question.
