hey matt on the throttle body man, the 6.0 tb is a lil bigger than the lm7 or ls1 tb's. You could always through some forged pistons and rodbolts in the thing and call it a day. on the cheap i dont think that would be bad. You could even throw in a newer revised rod for added durability, I thought i heard the ls2? or 3 rods were stronger? idk but cant wait to see vids of this sow going to town man

I think they might be a bit big too, but a lot of people used to think that certain things wouldn't work either until you did them lol
