I thought this was cool. I wanted to make my own Throttle Body and I have a bunch of old Holley's around my shop. What do you guys think of this? Here is a link:

Sure, there are many ways to do the TPS and use old carbs. This was much more common years ago with the early EFI conversions. Here is a page with one example of a Holley stripped for a throttle body. Actually, all the stripping is not necessary either, and my first MS conversion was with an intact carb with the fuel shut off. MS v1.01 reliability was unknown at the time and the setup allowed conversion back to carb with a simple fuel feed switch. This was convenient as the vehicle was for deep off-road excursions and allowed a simple backup system.

Thanks Dave!
I found that same info early today and googled some more and came up with the Holley made one. I noticed that most TPS have 3 wires...... I guess that one (from Holley) is just missing a ground wire. I might have some BIG plans on making an EFI set-up for a few coming up rides of mine. Thanks again

The Holley page shows three wires, but you have to look pretty closely to see them all as the black wire is hiding behind the other two.
