 70-75mm Throttle Body ???

As in title...
im after a 70 to 75mm throttle body (ID obviously).
prefereably, i am after something with AS FEW bits-of-shit (tm) hanging off it as possible. ie: no idle bypass, no PCV line, no loopy bits of coolant hosing etc etc...
something simple and clean looking.
ANY ideas where i might find one of these lurking?? - so, ok, maybe its asking a bit much to have one with minimal lines sticking out of it, but i need 70-75mm (MAYBE ~80mm max!)
btw, i checked out an LS1 t/b!! Holy Sweet Mother of GOD!!!!!!
cheers

PS i hear that TBs from the VK EFI manifold (black 202) are 3"/75mm?? is that correct. ive never noticed thaey were that large. anyone know where one may be hiding?

I "think" the XF Falcons have a 70mm throttle body! I'm not 100% sure, but I wouldn't pass checking one out.

Humm... maybe a nice 500SEL mercedes... (the w126 ones with K-jet...) That'd should have nothing hanging off it at all...I mean nothing. But it's quite easy to put a TPS on it.
I also got a TB from a 280e w123... it has a 64mm one and it's pure and simply, and quite short... modified it so I can fit a TPS to it...
