Message	While under the hood the other day, a friend pointed this out on my Z... Can you find what's wrong? ... and is it a bad thing or won't it matter??? Also, I had heard about this before but couldn't find much with SEARCH. The block that limits how far the throttle can go maxes out the throttle before the throttle body maxes out. (SEE PICS BELOW) If that block is shaved down, allowing the butterfly's to open more, would that give any sort of gain?
