Default where to mount IACV on OBX D16Y8 intake manifold???

I am finishing up a mini-me swap in my 92 civic hatch, and realized that the OBX intake manifold I was given does not have a spot for a IACV, Do the Y8 Throttle bodies have a spot for the IACV?

You should return it if there is no spot for the IAC. Only y8 with TB IAC is the auto one, and those are 3wire you cant use that.

Got it for free.

Could I mount the IACV on the flat end of it if I drill it out?

or should I remount my DX intake manifold and TB for now untill I get something better?

Ive seen that before, drilling out the back and making two holes where the IACv should go, running extended vacuum hoses to the IACv that mounted ( zip ties, lol) to the firewall. Gotta get a littel creative. Id hold off on that sort of thing till more info on that is found. Ive never seen a writeup on it, only seen it in person at a car meet.
