Default throttle body

Hey guys,new to the site so please be nice.I'm sure it's been asked a hundred times but here goes again.I just got done reading how to build a h-p ls1/ls6 and ls1/ls6 performance and they talked about using a truck 85 mm throttle body/air valve as the guy down the yards called it.Are there any mods to make to the 85mm or is it a bolt on.Also what yr and truck size,meaning body series and engine size?Any help is much appreciated.E-mail back at Tom01SS@aol.com=Thanks

There's many options with TB's. The most popular is porting your own, it will make a noticable difference and is completly free if you do it yourself. Most people don't worry about changing the TB until they upgrade the intake manifold to something like a 90mm FAST intake and then they go with an after market TB such as a FAST 90mm or a Nick Williams.

Try the links in my sig if you like. The Simple mod guide is a good place to start at. But please feel free to make use of any of them, also the stickys in each forum contain most of the info you'll probably ever need.
