upgrading from my stock throttle body ? im looking at the professional products 58mm piece. i could spend the money elsewhere but im wondering what id see with my cammed and slightly head worked lt1 ?

 

spend it else where, im still running the stock TB with my 226/230 @ 108lsa and going 11.5x @ 120

 

i also agree with 86formula's post. spend it elsewhere. i switched to a 52mm holley and gained like .5 mph on average. not worth it. unless you can find a good deal.

 

Buuuuuuut...

If you have money to burn you will see a small gain in HP.

 

Only reason I have one is because it was on clearance. Cheap as hell, wouldn't have dropped the money otherwise.

 

If you have the extra cash (which the PP TB aren't much) I would throw one on since you have swapped in a different cam and have some head work. Every little thing counts so why not

 

although i didnt really gain much at the track, the PP TB really made my car nice to drive on the street. better throttle response and much crisper revs and takeoffs. which made it worth the money to me.

 

Find one used. Its not going to give you too much of a gain, but as above throttle response should improve, etc.

PP is made out of china, find something made in the US.

 

Yes, they made in China but they have also been reliable well performing Throttle Bodies. Take BBK TB for example, they are made in the U.S. and a ton of them have malfunctioned and performed like crap..plus they are big $$$.

Buy a Pro Products, you will be happy with the product. I myself ran one with no issues and I know of several other guys on here still running them with no issues.

 

dont spend the money on it use it somewhere else unless you are building it and looking for all the hp you can get

 

thanks guys i guess when i have the chance to pick one up cheap i will

EDIT: long tubes will be a much better investment of my money i think

 

I would definitely get some LT's first, But i also have a 58mm PP

 

Holy ****, you don't have long tubes?! What is wrong with you man?!

 

+1!!!!! What's going on in that head of yours LT's come first!

 

see he blew it asking about a tb and he doesnt have long tubes man get you some long tube "CERAMIC COATED HEADERS" dont worry about a throttle body right now

 

or get the stainless steel Ebay headers, people have been having good luck with them and i got a set for 300 shipped

 

 

^^^ lmao!

 

^^^^ lol!!!!!

 

hahahaha
