The butterfly on the inlet side is 55mm across, and on the intake to the
throttle body is 65mm. I can't remember which wrecker I got the thing from
but I'm sure you won't have any trouble getting one, VL commodores tend to
be pretty common! Just get one froma wrecker that doesn't specialise in
holdens, it will be cheaper that way. I'm not sure how to attach it yet, I
would like to properly mount it to the manifold so it looks like a stock
fitment but I'll see how tricky this is going to be.
