Are S & Cooper throttle bodies the same?

Or are they different? Anybody know the part number for an S body?

Sorry, but they are not the same......

If you need a larger TB opening we have it available for you in 58mm and
it works absolutely great ...

Feel free to call us any time.

How can you tell the difference between the S and the Cooper TB?

Throttle Body

Peter,

The reason I am asking about the throttle body is that I plan on getting one of your large throttle bodies and wanted to keep a stock spare after I give you the one on my car as a core. So I bought one on ebay without thinking that it might not be correct. Here it is - did I waste my money?

It looks like an "S" TB but without meassuring the bore, it's hard to say...
Give me a call when it arrives and we can figure it out.
if it's a MC TB I will trade it in for what you paid, as I can always use the
core.
