Throttle body

I'm using a tbss intake on a 402, cable drive, need suggestions for a good choice for a throttle body. Built for torque and driveability in a 4x4 z71. Thanks

i dont see a throttle body benifiting your low end torque. all it does is let air in, so the real modulation is your foot.

the length and shape of the intake runners can make or lose torque .how well the intake runner matches up with the head port is also important in air flow.

Wasn't looking to optimize torque with a TB. Was looking to match the TB, intake, and motor. Since I already have a TBss intake and no throttle body, I wanted to know a good match on the TB.
