Is there a vacuum take-off point or blanking plug after the butterflies on the 4.5 AJP engine?
If so does anyone know the size of the hole?

yes, one on each bank, one is used for the servo vacuum connection the other has a blanking screw in it (allen head). Not sure on size but it looks about 12mm hole. Front two pots facing slightly inwards below the throttle plates.

Damn! I was hoping for one on each throttle body! I've found quite a nice unit for balancing the flows but it needs to screww into the body rather than fitting over the opening!

Ah, we are at cross purposes here. I thought you meant a big vac take off. There are 8 small (m4??) blanking screws on the outside of the bodies but not sure if they are above or below the plates. I can check later if nobody else can answer the question sooner.

Cheers! I can't get to mine till Saturday and I need to order the balancer with the correct size adapter!
