group buy?

[lowlife12]

I think we have some interest in a group buy on throttle bodies... would you guys be interested in doing that?

[dlangland5.9]

add me to the list

[MOPAR01]

i'm in!:mullet:

[twistedcherokee]

Do they have them for the 4.7?

If we can get a good deal on 58's im down.

[BKBridges]

Happy Thanksgiving!
We like group buys. We can offer up all of our products at a discount (includes 58mm) with a group purchase. When youve got your group together, PM me for the details on pricing and shipping.
Bruce K Bridges

[dlangland5.9]

lowlife12 or myself will defiantly pm you when we have our group together. thanks Bruce!

[larstrak]

how many in this 'group' do you need? projected savings? these things would be very helpful in getting a proper group together.

[BKBridges]

Yes, Yes...
The pricing varies with the size of the group! 10 or more and its full discount. I set the group leader up as a distributor and the distributor pricing list takes into effect. Usually a 25-35% discount over our advertised pricing. It depends on the "p/n" ordered. We will drop ship to the group via Fed Ex ground unless its other than a domestic shipment. We use USPS for international. Domestic shipping is $12.00 flat rate. International is location specific. pretty basic. smaller groups work the same except the pricing is our jobber rate + discount...
On another track... Im putting together an order for tee shirts right now. Any interest in those? White or black with the basic F&B logo on the back...
Bruce

[last_in]

Ill more than likely be down if we can get 10 people to get the good discounts for the 58mm and Renzoni mount. Ill take a tee shirt also, if you get them made.

[GoFastGray]

I'll be down for a shirt, Bruce :onethumb:

Any progress on them fuel rails :huh:

[lowlife12]

i think we can find 10 people

[last_in]

I'm in for sure now. When can we expect to make this happen?

[dlangland5.9]

im ready when we have 10 people. i would also like a shirt.

[DakRat33]

I'd be interested in the 52mm TB myself.:mullet:

I'd take a black shirt Bruce.

[moparsz]

I'd be down for a shirt, and any larger stickers if you have them

[white59rt]

So what is the price for a 58mm? 340-350ish?

If so I am IN!

Todd

[BKBridges]

Looks good so far! The shirts are in process, but they are all "ash" color...We dont make shirts very often so well only have a dozen or so... L and XL I think...Should be done by the end of the week. We are almost out of stickers these days so we need to order up... what size is a good size? (I like the buisness card size stickers, but thats me..) Im out of the shop today and tommorrow, (till wed) so the point man for the GB needs to email me Wednesday with the list of TBs needed, and I will give him the total. He will collect the total and get it to me, and I will drop ship the goods. Point man gets a little extra for the trouble...
Merry Christmas!

I sent a pm to 2dakotas about the new thread. He posted in the first thread that was in the wanted section. That was a while ago and maybe he doesn't want one anymore but if he still does he would be the tenth!

I am in for a 58mm if the price is right. Of coarse I can not commit to buy without knowing the price for sure.

IMO I think the price is right!

[moparsz]

We are almost out of stickers these days so we need to order up... what size is a good size? (I like the buisness card size stickers, but thats me..)
Bruce

I like bigger stickers like on the side of my truck (contengency size), but its up to you on what size you make up.

[2dakotas]

I will probably be in for a 58mm, but I need to know a definate price before I can commit 100% with Christmas right around the corner.

[white59rt]

I will probably be in for a 58mm, but I need to know a definate price before I can commit 100% with Christmas right around the corner.

Bruce said it is 25-35% off of his advertised price.

The 58mm is 495 on his site so figure between 325-375 - I myself am thinking right around 350ish....which would be 30% off.....


Who is heading this up officially? Can you PM everyone asking for them some pricing? Lets get the show on the road :mullet: before people change their mind and back out :funny:

Todd

I saw that, but 325-375 is not a definate price. I am out if it is 375, but will be in if it is 325 ($50 can buy my nieces and nephews some nice gifts). It is not all about me and my truck, so $50 would make a difference in my decision. My truck currently has a 52mm fastman, but I would like to upgrade for when the Procharger goes on in a few weeks, so I am interested, but I will not pay more than I feel it is worth, or atleast worth to me at this time.

Let me re-phrase my question. What is the exact price for a 58mm + shipping?

[last_in]

Thats what I was thinking. I think lowlife12 and dlangland5.9 are putting this show together, but if they don't want to I can do it.


Just out of curiosity, are they still making valve covers?

[dlangland5.9]

ill have to give it to low life because he was the one who started the wanted add and the group buy post. if he doesnt want to last_in can be in charge. Bruce did say the main guy gets a little more off. lets do this!

Im just trying to make less work for lowlife when he gets on so we have the full list of TBs needed. He hasn't been online since the 27th so ill send him a pm.

**11. 58mm - 2dakotas(only if it is the full 35% off)



I would also be in if it is $350 or less plus shipping, so roughly 30-35% off.

[dlangland5.9]

i assume the more people the cheaper it will be. you got my tb size right.

[jayc]

58mm for me please

[2dakotas]

Any of you guys getting 58mm's going to have 52's for sale next month?

I will have a 52mm Fastman one for sell if I can get the 58mm form F&B.

[RJ_Hythloday]

Any of you guys getting 58mm's going to have 52's for sale next month?

I will have a 52mm Fastman one for sell if I can get the 58mm form F&B. Looking more for a used 52mm F&B, I might be in on the group buy, but it's looking more like Mid January for the funds. Using the stock TB for a week or two would be the easiest swap to make after the build is done.

[BKBridges]

OK,
Looks good! Weve got it all in stock ready to assemble and ship. Heres the next step: Have one person (the leader) PM me for pricing. Due to the unique mix of this build, additional discounts will apply, so I request that the pricing be PMd to the group and that it remain confidential...Once the leader has collected the funds, He paypals them to me with a list of the shipping addys. We ship. We can have it all shipped out by middle of next week if we can get the details going this week!

Can't we send the funds directly to you?

[white59rt]

I was thinking the same thing - otherwise we will need to pay the paypal charges to the group buy orginator so he doesnt get screwed, which would add 11 dollars to the deal.

Todd

[last_in]

I think I read somewhere if you send the money as a "gift" on paypal, no fees are charged and you get the full amount. It would be easy just to paypal Bruce but if he wants it to go through the leader first then we could "gift" the money to the point man.

[2dakotas]

I think, if I'm not mistaken, that if you send it as a gift, the sender pays the fees, but if you don't send as a gift, the receiver pays the fees. I think the last time I sent it as a gift, it ended up costing $3-4 for a $200 transaction.

[RJ_Hythloday]

I like the sound of this, and I am in for sure now, so mark me as #11. I like the fact that Bruce is a good business man and is willing to offer a great deal for multiple customer orders. Thanks Bruce!

It does sound good, wish I could commit, but I'm certain I need other stuff like a motor in the truck first.

[2dakotas]

Oh, and I think he wants a point man, so that he knows he has an order of atleast 10 before he can agree on a price, and to make sure that he has a vendor, so to speak. Without a vendor, if only 5 or 6 people pay seperately, no one knows for sure how many have paid and may think that F&B is the one holding it up, which in turn wouldn't be the case. With a point man, all the orders go in together, and I am sure makes the invoicing and processing easier for them.

[DakRat33]

Does anyone have a 52mm F&B avail after all this? If so I would have no need to get in on this GB. But I am still interested either way. Let us all know.

If you send funds as a gift, PayPal records it as no exchange of goods, as in no purchase. If you get stiffed....Too bad.

I do it all the time to people I really know and trust.

I am not in a huge hurry on this, but it would be nice to have so that I can go ahead and install while I am putting my Procharger on here in a couple of weeks.

There are six payments in the group buy so far. 4 more and we start assembling!

How long for shirts? And I could use another sticker too. The last one got put on my printer that I just upgraded.

Whats the group buy price on a 52x55?

[meangreen]

Not to start shit, but I was PM'd a price that was less discount than the 25-35% quoted by Bruce on the first page. :huh:

[BKBridges]

Dude,
The % estimate was off the top of my head, before we had a product mix etc. etc. Stay on target. Our list prices went up about a year ago. Ive had a couple people with the same query based on an old pricing structure. List for the 58mm is $550.00, with its sugg retail at $530.00...Its a decent deal re: GB...

I think when people were trying to guess the price of these, we all took the price that it is listed for it on your website ($507 shipped for 58mm), and then figuring from there.

[RJ_Hythloday]

completely off topic, but I've been trying to figure out

Who needs a 52,55,52x55,58?

I'm building a 360, heads, mild cam, rockers unsure, M1 intake, shorty headers w/ full exhaust. It's a daily driver, and I want the power available for off road.

I've been told a 52mm would suit my needs.

I would like to offer thanks to Bruce - he knows what for and let me just say he has been one of the most stand up guys in this community since day 1 of the Dakota R/T.....I wont ever hesitate to buy anything from him regardless of price (it is always nice to save a buck though).

Thanks again Bruce for doing this for us!

It went over 10, but seems to still be open.

I think he was referring to how many have paid so far because Bruce said he would start to assemble the orders when he gets 10 payments. I am ready now. I said I wasn't in a hurry a couple days ago, but I got my intercooler piping and SC bracket back from powder coating, so I am ready now LOL.

[dlangland5.9]

well it should close because we have 10 then. my uderstanding was the tbs get shipped when he closes the group buy?

[last_in]

I think we have nine or ten paid up now, ill have to check. Bruce is also going to close the group buy down a week after he gets the first ten people, so people can still get in on this good deal!

[WeezyRT]

So even though the GB will be open for an extra week after the 10 people have paid, will the first 10's TB's be getting shipped out while the others are jumping in over that extra week time frame? Im basically just curious as to when we can expect to get these. I ordered SCT with this TB being part of the tune.. just hoping I'll have this by the time my SCT arrives.

[dlangland5.9]

when are the throttle bodys going to ship?

[BKBridges]

Hey,
:sickcold:Apologies for being away from the forum... The whole F&B shop was down with the vicious stomach bug for the past week. Ive been down hard since Sunday. Luckily we put the GB order together before we all got the crud. Bodies are all built, Tee shirts arrived last night, and I am still waiting for the new gaskets (should already be at the shop I hope)...More meat for 58mm TBS. If all goes well and I dont relapse we should have everything shipped out tommorrow.

[TurboBlew]

whens the last day to get in??

Sounds like it is too late as he has already processed the orders and they are suppose to go out today.

Bruce is a pretty good guy. Doesn't hurt to ask. Best bet is to email Bruce directly.

In the spirit of the season I will still accept GB orders until the 20th. We are out of stock on early (two screw IAC) 4.7 TBs and we are now out of stock on 58mm TBs! (ouch and thanks!:mullet:) If you need one of the above mentioned, PM me...

The gaskets have not arrived as of today (friday the 18th) Im going to ship today without them and send them via USPS when they do come. Holidays really slow suppliers down...

We shipped the GB throttlebodies out on Friday afternoon via USPS. We had two problems... No gaskets, and we ran out of Large Tees. We substituted XLs for the Ls... We will mail the gaskets to you when we receive them...The Christmas season really slows things down...FYI, The Tshirts are individually hand screened by a friend of mine, and are a "limited run" of 30shirts...I couldnt get him to make more Ls since he bailed out to Florida for the holidays already..

Got mine....Thanks!

Got mine....Thanks!

Nice, now whatever you do DONT hook up the nitrous - I would spend a couple years tweaking your setup with that TB to see what it will do BEFORE you spray it at all.

I've already tweaked it to death on a borrowed 58.
I'll spray it, I'm bored with 12's now....LOL

A little worried about the trapping rpms, I'm trapping at 6300 right now, but Sean gave me a Nitrous tune...I'll start with a 50 or 75 shot data log etc and work my way up.

[kaptaink]

good luck with that - keep us posted on the results

NICE!!

I think with your truck and all the mods you have done to it and how well it runs that you will be very pleased with a 100 shot when it is all said and done - A 100 shot will knock the dust off your old ass :jester:

Thanks, Billets like that. Got the new gaskets out in the mail today. Youll still need to trim em for the 58, but they have more meat on the outside and are thicker. The 2bbl manifold gets kinda thin on the sides.

[BubbainAK]

Just my luck, saw this a day late. Anyone out there with an extra 70mm?

[2dakotas]

I'm hoping to get mine 2mrw so I can see that beautiful work of art in person. Tennessee is too darn far from the west coast LOL.

We are out of stock on 99-03 70mm TBs but we have a couple of the later model 70s in stock. Ive got a couple lightly used early 70s I could part with as well...

[WeezyRT]

Got mine in, thanks a lot!

Could you PM me a price on one of the used 70's for an 02 4.7? Cosmetics always play second fiddle to function in my book, and the stock ported 68 and the STILL stock exhaust are on my ever growing list of stuff to get replaced now that I'm not deployed or stationed overseas.

Have any of the group buy guys got your TB gasket yet? I have emailed Bruce about it, but haven't receive a response back yet. In a post on this thread, he posted that the gaskets went out on Dec 23. I am waiting on this to finish my blower install.

[WeezyRT]

Nope never got mine.

[dlangland5.9]

I was going to ask the same thing you beat me to it though. If they were sent out the 23rd we should get them any day now.

[white59rt]

I got mine!!

With the holidays and the weather throughout the midwest causing delays, it's probably going to take a little longer to get. Had something "overnighted" through UPS that took 4 days to get to me due to weather.

Should have is the key here... Im losing faith in the USPS. I sent all the gaskets out on the 23rd. They were all mailed back to me after Xmas. The post office thought the to was the from... I resent them (note the funny ripped address label etc. for those of you that got them) and this time only 3 came back to me... Not returned, but mailed back to me, the sender??? WTF. Ive been wrapped around the axle lately, but I am sending the last three out today with my apologies...
Bruce

[2dakotas]

Thanks again, Bruce. I was going to post the email that you sent to me explaining the problem just so people that are waiting would know what is going on, but you beat me to it :funny:

[last_in]

I have had my throttle body and gasket for awhile now. Thank you so much Bruce for letting us get this good deal on your throttle bodies. You do amazing work and I would gladly do business with you in the future.

[BKBridges]

F&B Thanks You!
No comments on the Tee shirts though... My Tee shirt screener gets back from FL next week and I was hoping Id get some feedback pos or neg... Too plain? Too Retro? Too exclusive?? Id hate to have him make more if they stink in the eyes of the buying public.:huh:

Not all of the "buying public" was able to get a shirt though. I'd still like one.

That mollestache is a hoot
Shirts would likely sell better with Leo on em

[kaptaink]

have not been able to stop looking at the billet lol
will have a better look at the shirt when I get home:mullet:

[dlangland5.9]

i liked the shirt. i wouldnt change anything except the color of the shirt, black or white would be the best sellers.
