Inbox me? I already have the Delicious FF kit, so would need a new tune from them anyway, so don't need their tune.

Question about the throttle body line delete of the Harrop kit. How this would an issue in cold climates? Any problems? I guess there is a reason why the TB is warmed. I guess not a problem in Australia tho

I don't think there are any issues. The cosworth supercharger deletes the throttle body coolant lines. But they never seemed to have any issues in England.

I *think* the heated throttlebody is to prevent icing of the throttle in humid, freezing weather.
15K on my Harrop, in SoCal.....not a problem yet. Now, maybe in Wisconsin or Minisnowta? |

I'm on Edelbrock, I've deleted the coolant lines and polished the inside of the throttle body, no issues to report. Very humid area with a few days below freezing per year.

one of the main reasons for heating the throttle on the stock manifold is that its plastic
so the metal throttle can suffer from icing in cold climates as its well insulated from engine heat as all the positive displacement blowers are metal manifolds and metal that gets quite hot there's generally no longer a need to heat the throttle |

drive belts?
Is there is a difference between the design, quality, and reliability of the belts (Harrop vs. Edelbrock)?

No. I believe both are using a six rib Gator brand style belt.
