Throttle bodies?
 
Need opinions on what brand of throttle body to go with. I am guessing either a 52mm or a 58mm. My motor isn't finished yet that is why I don't have anything in my signature yet.

They all serve the same purpose, I think the Holley and ASMs make some of the best looking throttle bodies on the market. I have the BBK throttle body, it is nothing special to look at, but I bought it because I got a good deal on it used.

i dont really understand what his setup has to do with what brand of TB but anyway
i personally would go 58mm just because it leaves room for future mods and doesnt really hurt anything now
as for brand
what ever you like and trust i will personally be getting the Summit brand its about 50 bux cheaper and they are a quality piece and its nice cause the TB plate doesnt have some brand name all over it so it allows you to stealth it up a little

i agree with fryedclutch, go with the 58mm, what brand really dont matter. i personally have the 58mm bbk. its good quality and cheap and i like the logo

Thanks for your inputs. The reason I mentioned my signature is because usually somebody wants to know what engine is in the car and what mods.

i have a 52 mm for 200 bucks. I don't need it anymore, its been machined for smoother air flow in. let me know. I can get you pics.
