Default 63mm Throttle body

Where do you send the Throttle bodys to have them done up to 63mm?
Thanks

Two options that I am aware of, in no particular order;

Marc Haibeck
Greg VanDeventer

I saw on Marc's site about fine tuning not for the over size?
Thanks

It was bored out to 63mm. His throttle plates are matched closely to the bore negating any need for the magical GM DAG.

Is this something needed on a stock cube, ported motor? Trying to search for answers to some of this stuff and can't find anything. Think I've read 1000's of pages on the site!

I have had a 63mm on my motor from the time the top end was ported. Not sure it makes a ton of difference with just that level of mod.

I did my own, had a shop bore out the TB and had throttle blades made by Kinsler....no issues

According to Marc, even bored, stroked to 378 with head porting and top end porting, may pick up 5 hp at high rev.
