Craig, I may have a nice used 85 throttle body with single switch for
$100 if you interested.  The single switch is nicer because you can
still get that switch if you need to replace it in the future.  The
older style with the dual switches is OK as long as it is still working
however both switches have been discontinued for a while.  Let me know
if you are interested.
