These TBs came on '95 - '97 LHS'. I used mostly driver-side ITBs due to the nature of their throttle shafts. The passenger-side ITB has the TPS blade at the end of the shaft, which makes it shorter and only usable on the end ITBs. Shafts were connected with McMaster shaft couplers that have a hard plastic spider that is tight enough to eliminate play, but flexible enough to allow about 1º of misalignment. The pinch-bolt type is the best to get, but more expensive. They allow infinite adjustment were a set-screw type may imprint on the shafts and prevent really small adjustments once the shaft has the set-screw indentation on it.
I've had so many request for information about these (especially from the SCCA Porsche guys), that I put a couple of vids out there for them (be kind; these are my very first set of videos, which just goes to show, an old dog can learn new tricks):
