Powder Coating the Throttle body?
I'm helping a friend with a top end refresh and we're doing powder-coat. Question is, does the throttle body need to be disassembled for powder coating or will the springs and plastic pieces tolerate the curing oven?

I completely dissesembled mine. To me if your going to do it you might as well do it right. You will be glad you did. It will look spectacular at any angle and in any light.

Re: Powder Coating the Throttle body?
I take mine apart as well, I took a sanding disk that I have that fits inside the back of the throttle plates and sand down the back of the screws so they will come out, when reinstalling the screws I use lock-tite.

Re: Powder Coating the Throttle body?
Mine were swaged down inside the holes so that wasn't an option for me. It will mess the threads up so I just drilled and taped it to the next size up.
     I just ground them to the right length. |

Re: Powder Coating the Throttle body?
Can the primary stay in place? The temperature does not affect the spring?
