Product Description

The BBK 1534 Twin 52mm Power Plus Throttle Body is a direct-fit performance upgrade engineered specifically for 1985-1988 GM Tuned Port Injection (TPI) applications including the Camaro, Corvette, and Firebird with 305 or 350 V8 engines. By replacing the restrictive factory throttle body with twin 52mm bores, this BBK unit delivers up to 30% more airflow, translating to 7-12 rear-wheel horsepower gains along with noticeably sharper throttle response and improved acceleration throughout the RPM range.

Built from high-quality 356 aluminum using state-of-the-art CNC machining, the BBK 1534 is a true bolt-on replacement that installs without modification and requires no ECU tune. OEM-style die-stamped throttle linkages, double-sealed bearings, and O-ringed throttle shafts maintain factory drivability while significantly improving engine breathing. CARB approved (E.O. D-245-15) and legal in all 50 states, this throttle body is ideal for enthusiasts looking to extract more performance from their classic GM muscle car without sacrificing emissions compliance or daily drivability.
