Quick Question

[01continental]

I was looking through some search posts and notice that a few people seem to have a single blade/port throttle body. Maybe I got the wrong impression but my '06 has a dual port/blade TB. Did some V-8s have a single port?

Mine's a single, I thought they all were. Are you sure yours doesn't look like this?

Could you post a picture?

apparently all but one of them did


I have never seen any LS with a twin blade TB (and i have worked on a few 06s)

Unless its custom, it has to be a single.. and if you have a dual, you would have to get a hold of missing Linc' because I'm sure he'd love to know..

pictures needed for sure.

pictures needed for sure.

When I was cleaning my filter I looked at my TB on my 06. It sure looks like a single blade body.

I would love to see this twin blade set up

I've been watching missing linc's thread to see how his is going

shouldn't really need a picture for a 2nd gen to figure it out, its really as simple as is there one or two tubes coming from the TB going to the airbox.

however if it was twin blade, i sure would like to see a picture, thats interesting for sure.

EDIT: actually the dual tubes where on the older style trucks, it looks like most of the new twin blades just use a oval shaped tube

LOL....my 06 has a single blade.

You saw wrong or someone did one hell of a job.

You all are probably right. My wife and I were discussing my '02 Continental, a few days ago, and I am possibly having flashbacks from that car. I installed a short ram a while back on my LS. I don't remember having to remove that part of the intake hose. I will double check tomorrow, sorry for wasting all of you guys' time.
