63 mm Throttle Body
I see a lot of Z owners mention 63mm throttle body as one of their mods.
Who makes it and about how much $? How does it differ from the stock throttle body and when does this mode make since? |

Re: 63 mm Throttle Body
The two big blades inside the TB are a 58mm size. The bore is enlarged to 63m and new butterflies are cut out and mounted up.
Cost is around 300. The gain on a P&P plenum and injector housing set is minimal. |

Re: 63 mm Throttle Body
I would rather see somebody put the 300 bucks towards headers than to modify the TB.

Re: 63 mm Throttle Body
IMO if a 48mm TB will support a 502 CI BB the stock TB should be plenty for the LT5 even with plenty of porting. Sure, its comparing 2v to 4v but airflow is airflow.
