Dao,
The intake manifold is set up to work with the double throated TB. Theoretically, you could use a single throat TB as long as it flowed as much or more than the current TB.

The twin 60mm throttle bodies flow about 900cfm from memory. A search wuold find that I think.

To get close to this you'd need a single 80mm at least or more.

You'd also need to create an adaptor the splits the single 80mm back to the twin manifold entry points.

It's all possible, but I'm wondering what mods are you trying that require this?

Can you give us any more info so that we can understand why its necessary? That might help.

Matt
