Kenne Bell throttle body swap

[Convertedfromv8]

Hey guys I’ve got a stock 3.8 with diamond pistons and Edelbrock 210 cam running 20psi with a te60.

Is it worth swapping out my stock throttle body for this Kenne Bell ? Is it a simple bolt on ? (Obviously only changing the couplet size as I believe the KB is 70mm)

Thanks for the advice

It is purely for looks. The stock throttle body can support 1000hp.

Agree... if you have it why not but at your current level nothing is gain

With my experience part throttle acceleration a little better for street .

Probably due to the fact that the throttle blade is large. Less throttle input for more flow.

That also means less pull on the TV cable which means less line pressure.

Good point.
More power + less TV cable = no transmission

Parts should always work together not against each other.
