this should be on your mod list last after heads/cam/intake. You wont really see any gains on a stock or even bolt LS1. im guessing your stock? get some longtube headers and full exhaust if you want best bang for buck you can feel!

I'd just port the stock 1 until you can buy a fast.

IMO ! BBK is horrible. I've had two throttle bodies that were both crap. Throttle kept sticking and butterfly wouldnt open all the way. I also had there intake manifold that had constant air leaks from the removable bottom plate. Had it off four times trying to seal it. Screws were coming loose and falling out of it. Sealed the bottom plate and it still leaked. 78mm stock T/B P/P for about a 100.00 or a BBk 80 mm for about 350.00. Your call...Just my two cents.
