RE: throttle body
we do have the 68 mm but it is coned. if you were to look at a ice cream cone it is bigger at one end then the other. thats the way are tb are. what dan does is makes the tb the same size from frt to back. look at a coke bottle as the same way. bigger at the botom then the top. now look at a coke can. it is the same size top to botom. he removes that restriction . to make it the same size. you will notice the difference once it is removed.and you have them side by side.

RE: throttle body
yes it will. if you go to big then you wil lose a lot of low end grunt. but in the higher rpm range it will be a screamer. but if you keep the stock cam set up the refabbed 68 will be just fine. you will notice the truck will not be so sluggish off the line. it will maintain speeds while going up a hill with the cruise on and it will even drop your rpm a little while cruising on the highway

RE: throttle body
My school of thought on this is this:
Our motors will pull the air that is availiable. More air makes more power... but on the same token too much air makes moves the torq curve too much on the high side of the powerband, making it incredibly un-usefull as a towing vehicle... I dont want a race truck. I want a work truck. I like lowend grunt...

RE: throttle body
Kinda like all the people that get the overkill exhaust sizes..
I know mine is slightly too large, cuz there is a little lag in it's going power, but I feel, once I save up for the cams....tb....flash....and some secret internal parts.... it shouldn't be too large anymore. :-)
