Gen iii cable throttle bodies
« on: August 10, 2012 - 11:37:17 AM »
Im looking for a 90mm+ throttlebody for the 6.1 I started looking to see what options are out there for us and thought it would be helpful to find out what everyone else has come accross.

So far I have found the mopar 80mm one and BBK 1791 80mm.

I really am looking for high increase in cfm intake, a dual butterfly setup like the srt10 and vipers have would be a great setup too.

I will buy the fast adapter and use an gm ls throttle body. I'm not sure what injection setup your using but I'm going with megasquirt so using the gm has its advantages. What are your plans for the motor? I think the stock 6.1l intake is only 84 mm so unless you are doing something different I would stick with that size. If your planning on a boosted motor then I wouldn't worry about the size so much.

Here's a pic of the FAST adapter with the LS1 throttle body that comes with the FAST 6.1 kit.  It's a nice piece.  My only compliant is that the throttle cable is on the passenger side.  I wish it was on the drivers side and pulled from the bottom because it would be a lot easier to make a bracket.

The 6.1 Intake is 84mm so anything bigger then that you need to CNC port the intake to take advantage of the larger TB. Also unless you are runner bigger cubes anything bigger then 85mm is a waste if money.
