Default Ok guys, what t.b. to use?

I am getting ready to start putting the motor back together within the next couple of weeks.

I am looking to get a good Big throttle body. I am looking at either the tpis, the fast 90 mm, the LG 90 mm or maybe an Accufab or??????? The main thing is I need some serious flow.

Decisions decisions. I haven't really seen too much feedback on these pieces. So I thought that I'd ask anyways and see what the board will suggest.

Thanks,
Roman

if you want a big TB i'd wait till there more readily available so you can accurately assess them. the fast 90mm isnt even out yet, and theres only been one test on the LG 90mm.

A sheet metal intake. So I figure that pretty much any throttle body can be made to work.

So, is there any word as to when this stuff is going to be available? I need to have the car running by the end of March. I got the Hot Rod pump gas drag event to attend soon after.

Roman,

if you are having a manifold fabricated, just go with a big mustang style t/b. Cost is WAY cheaper and availibilty is better. I belive they make a 101 or a 102 mm t/b. That big enough ?

There's a reason the fast GN's run mustang TB's
