37 x 37 = 1369
Two holes are twice (1369), thus 2 x 1369 = 2738
square root of 2738 = 52.325
52.325 is the equivalent radius thus the diameter is 2 x 52.325 = 104.7

I did not use Pi and then divide by PI so please forgive my short math hand.
two 74 mm TB's are equal in area to one of 104mm.
104 is bigger than most TB's on the market. ITs right there with the 5.7 dodge hemi!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sorry for the homework........W

thanx woody i almost understand this!! must have been in the can smokin when they taught this in school!!
dinasrt if i dont ask ill never figure it out!! see i let the smart kids figure it out then i copy their homework. it works!!!
