Arlen Ness Big Sucker Install

[shinobiofwind2]

The installation on this say to leave the OEM throttle body support in place. Is this necessary? The SE backplate instruction say to remove it.

With the SE you do remove bracket because backplate is new support.

I dont know about ness.

You do not remove the brace with the Ness Big Sucker. The backplate is made so you can leave the brace as is. I like it better than the SE because the brace is a pia to remove.

Sorry forgot to mention that my support is already gone. Wanted to know if I need to get a new one or if I can install without.

You're going to need it or a bunch of washers (or something) to make up the space. Might leak oil with washers...

The ness back plate mounts on top of it.
That is to say the support plate goes between the ness back plate and the heads.
