Why? Apart from some linkage differences all FC TB's are basically identical.

it would take a bit of swapping parts, it is not a bolt on thing due to small differences.

I did it, it's a PITA don't waste your time.

Yes you have to swap the linkages and modify it for the TPS and add spacers on the lower left bolt so in essence there not the same TB but internally they are the same.
