Since were back on the subject of throttle bodies, has anyone noticed an inked "318" number on their 360 throttle body? I noticed that a while back on mine and I was wondering if that means its for a 318 or if they are both the same. And yes, this is the factory throttle body for my 360 engine.

The Fastman modifications go beyond just the the bore diameter. He also removes the air horns on the top and polishes the openings to the bore, which dramatically improves air flow into the TB. He also replaces the blades and center pin with new brass components. So even if you just put a plain old 52mm TB on, it wouldn't perform as good as a Fastman 52mm.

I know what Dan does to the throttle bodies. I can remove the air horns and polish the bores; I have done it before. I just want a cheap Fastman.
