No Just Port Your Stocker OR have someone do it for you.. a 90MM would prolly hurt you anyway if you could fit it on

FYI, summit makes a 85mm TB for 166 bucks. You can open the mouth of the intake slightly, I think i got mine up to 3.100 and i broke through in a few places getting it that far. I epoxyied and its been fine, I picked up 2mph with the 85 and ported intake. I also port matched the runners.

You can always run a larger TB then the mouth of the intake, because it makes up for the space the throttle blade and shaft takes up.

not exactly sure why your wanting to put a huge throttle body on your manifold...your realize the opening in the manifold is not changing and going to be smaller then the TB.....porting yours will get it around 78mm from 75...
