Is your 93 modified (intake, heads, header, stroker)?

If it is stock, a bigger TB would not be cost effective.

The motor is a 350cu in with AFR 195 heads. Compression is 10.5. Longtube headers. Ported LT1 intake. The cam is a custom ground Bullet for this set up, not to wild and very streetable. 1.6 roller rockers. Either I rebuild my stock TB or buy a new one.
Thanks,

Look in the summit web site. You can choose and compare among all different ones.

I bought summit's 58mm. It's polished and cheaper than all other brands.
