    Throttle Body Size?

    My current combo is a 347ci with a S-Trim pushing 10-14 lbs of boost depending on conditions, 42lb injectors and a Comp blower cam, FPS 200cc runner lenght heads, Edel RPM Performer intake. The car put down 510rwhp and 510rwtq. I currently have a 65mm TB on the car, but have been wondering if a larger 70mm or 75mm TB would give any increase in performance, any input is appreciated, Lee

    I called Accufab,, George recommended a 75mm TB.... I spent my money on a sumped tank, Eaton 31 spline diff and Strange Axles,,, so the new TB is out for now... Lee

    Not sure if it will really make much difference.....

    I have ran 24 psi through a 75mm TB if this helps.....I would imagine a larger one would benefit me but how much HP??? probably not much!

    So if you have the money a bigger one would be in order but not necassary I'd say!

    -545 rwhp
    -10.02 @ 135mph---Is 9.99 to much to ask?:freaks:
    -1.42-- 60'
