You should have a 70 mm Egr spacer also,if you mount the 70mm to you old egr spacer it will need to be "ported"..I have a new polished 70mm spacer at my shop..

Sorry I miss understood your post,you cannot port the stocker to 70 mm.I believe 64mm was max.The butterfly would have be be replaced.It would be better just to pick up a T body/spacer..

My old one was ported to 64 as well, i ended up just picking up a BBK one

Keep us posted on what you do. But you should be able to find a ported 64mm TB for $50 canadian.

Dont bother going with a 70mm on a stock 302. Most bolt on Stangs will work the best with a 65mm, as a 70mm or larger will cause you to lose more low end power than you would gain in the top end. Those pics look good, how did you port the holes? It looks like you went through on a couple of spots. Are you going to fill those spots with putty/JB Weld or weld em and clean them up?

yeah didnt expect to go through like that guess should have been paying more attention. did them with a lathe machine, gonna patch it up with the jb weld, and polish that and the spacer, and thanks for the info will take that into consideration
