Throttle body qq It seems that no one in my area wants to port tb's. What size after market tb can I use w/ my ls6 intake? Looking for something cheaper like a bbk or pp http://www.ws6project.com/user_stor/...throttle-body/
thx
thx
Believe you gotta stay with the 78 for the ls6 intake. You could send yours out, most people who port them do it on an exchage basis anyway, and that would save you some cash for a mod that will actually make a difference.
Forgive my nubness guys, but why port the TB if the throttle plate stays the same size? I mean where the throttle plate closes and "seals" can't be ported, so why port the horn area? Isn't the CFM limited by the size of the plate opening?
I'm familiar with the venturi effect, is that why you port the TB?

Could you notice a difference in throttle response?
