Arlen Ness Big Sucker Install
Just got my ANBS today from American Classic Motors and when I went through the parts found 3 black set screws 1/4-20X1 1/4" and I see no mention of them anywhere in the destructions.Part # is H-416B on the bill of materials. Did they just put those in to confuse me? Any tips on the install?

I just got finished looking at your install pics. I was told by the dealer that the black plate in the back needs to be removed or there will be major problems up the road. I took mine off right after he told me which was when I took in in for the 2500 mile service.

I dont know about the screws either, I have a 08. You definately want to make sure that the 0 rings are not crimped or it will possibly leak some oil.

step 1 of the AN installation instructions clearly tells you to "DO NOT REMOVE THE OEM THROTTLE BODY BRACKET".......THIS MUST BE LEFT IN PLACE FOR PROPER FITMENT AND SUPPORT.......

What did you end up going with? The instructions I got with my big sucker (from AN), actually said to remove the throttle body plate, that it wouldnt be used. I was just looking at the stock images and the ones that were posted here, and sure as ****, thy have em in there.
Ill post a photo of my instructions when I have a min.
