Throttle Body Question
I have a stock 86 Vette and I am wondering what type of aftermarket throttle body would be best for me to purchase? The one currently on the car is real sticky when I press the gas it takes for ever for the RPM's to come back down. I plan on doing future mods to the car so I would like to get something I wont have to replace again in the near future. Any info would be of great help.
Thanks

There is someone here on the forum who can install bearings on the throttle shaft of your old throttlebody. He can also bore it out to 52 mm as well. I don't remember his name, but do a search, I'm sure you'll find it.

Installing a larger TB is unnecessary for all but the most extreme engine modifications, just have the current one fixed.
