Default ported throttle body

Want to buy a ported throttle body for my vette. Who does a great job and is reasonably priced. I want to buy outright and keem my stock one.

Input needed please.

I also have a Shanner TB and it is a very nice piece of work. Be advised that you may have some idle issues (engine won't go back to idle and stays running faster then normal for a brief period) after install. My engine had this problem until I had the issue fixed by a tuner on the dyno. Just a heads up for what it's worth.

I have Shaner TB. No issues whatsoever. Stock with all the bolt ons. Seems like it runs normal but with a little better throttle response.

When you see the quality of the porting done by Mark you will have no regrets. I wound up winning two auctions on ebay and sent one to Mark for porting. Sold the other on the forum and kept my stock TB as a back up. You can always sell your stock TB later for what you paid for the replacement - there always seems to be a demand.

You need to contact Pete @ VMAX Motorsports in Fla about his units. He has reasonable ported throttle bodies and is a very reliable person to deal with.
