Default aftermarket throttle body that can use a oem throttle valve?

Unfortunately because my setup is automatic, I have to have my kickdown cable which adjusts the tranny line pressure according to the throttle position, which attaches to the throttle valve (the part that the cable attaches to). Unfortunately this seems to be limiting me to using an ITR throttle body as an upgrade which is only 62mm, but id like something a tad larger, either 65 or 68mm, however none of these aftermarket pieces state if you can use an oem style valve/bracket, they all seem to have their own cnc'ed proprietary styles. Anyone know of any that may work for my particular setup?

You could always send your oem throttle body to maxbore. I have one laying around that is 66mm at the opening and tapers to 64mm at the plate. If you went that route you'd have an oem tb at about 65mm.

No im talking about the piece that the throttle cable connects to, the pulley i guess it would be called. I bought a 68mm omni power however, looks like it uses an OEM style connection and can be easily swapped over.
