Thumbs up Steve Monroe's Throttlebody Service

Just wanted to let everyone know of my experiance with Steve. One word AMAZING!!!
I had him do the the my throttlebody and upper plenum I also got some gaskets from him.
What I sent to him versus what i received back where two different items. I could have swore he sent me someone elses throttlebody and upper plenum by mistake. My stockers where so stained and beat-up looking I never thought they could turn out so Good. They are better than stock.
The turn around time is amazing. I sent my parts to him on a saturday and had them back in my hands by wednesday.
Steve, sorry I didn't post this sooner, (just got back from Hawaii ), But definately what to let everyonr know what Amazing service you provide.
Thanks Again,
Lorenzo

Steve did my throttlebody too. His skill and service are fantastic. He took a tired old throttlebody and made it look and function better than when it was new

Thanks Lorenzo. Glad I could be of service.

And as I usually say after a good review: "It don't take me all day to do nothing".

Steve Monroe killed my puppy and ate it. He does do excellent work though...and fast too.

You sure that was Steve? Sounds like something that a ferret might do.

Nope, it was Steve, but he did such a good job with the throttle body I decided to let it go. He is from Oklahoma, after all.

I'm going to send mine to him one of these days. Hopefully he's still alive by the time I do so..

I was thinking of putting from Gothmog on the package as a joke, but I'm afraid he'd punt it into a river.

That wouldn't be a problem bishir. Just help me with this; I can't remember which one of these was the TB you sent me?

Hi Tom,
Best to just post the link where the info and pics are located;
http://www.throttlebodys.com/Buick%20GN.htm
Email me is better if you have questions. My ISP marks as spam and deletes any notices from this board for some reason.

Just got my TB back from Steve. What a great guy who cares about his customers and takes pride in his workmanship. The plate (glass mirror!) fits the widened bore better than the stock plate/body did! And talk about the fast service. It even came back painted to boot! Thanks to Steve and this link for allowing me to find him.

Awesome!

I had to bring this TTT as I just got my throttle body and plenum back from Steve. It is very evident that great care is taken with your parts. Not a nut, bolt or stud is untouched....paint is perfect, machining is perfect, plenum is bead blasted and looks new etc. The service is the best it can possibly be; workmanship, communication, shipping, turnaround time etc. I will recommend him to every TB owner I know. Thanks so much Steve!
