Anyone have input on throttle bodies? I'm lookin for a throttle body for my LQ4. I'm gonna have the new edelbrock manifold on top of it with some healthier heads n cam.
I can't get over how huge the price tag is of the fast and other throttle bodies. Are they really that special? Is there really that big or a difference?
The fast is on summit for 400 to 450 with competitors close behind while the summit 85mm is only 242 on sale. Anyone know if the big names are really worth the big price tags?

You want to search some more, some TBs seem
prone to blade leaks that give idle problems. At
the big end 85mm is 85mm and use whatever is
the same size as your manifold opening. But if you
have a choice, pick one that doesn't have a lot
of associated bitching (here and in PCM section).
Also be sure there isn't some kooky crap like a
"custom" bolt pattern between equal sized but
different-mfr TBs.
