Default Throttle body

I have been posting like crazy, thanx to all for help! I was looking into changing out the throttle body and see that I have 2 options. 52mm and 58mm. I am doing things little by little and was wondering if thats something I should wait for or can I do it now with stock manifold? Any help would be great. I also posted a thread about racing clutches. Thanx again guys!

throttle body won't do you any good till you're pushing about 350hp to the wheels. i'd spend my money elsewhere at this point

Ok. Here is the deal then. I am currently deployed and the wife bought the car. As far as I know, the car has pace setter headers and flowmasters, cold air intake and engine was rebuilt do to blown out lifters. Needs some body work done so I am trying to plan out upgrades and mods before I get home so that the parts are waiting for me. Any thoughts on small mods and stuff? Lookin at underdrive pulleys and possibly MSD. Let me know.

what are you looking for out of the car? a track car? different gears will change the car a lot...i wanna say in 6 speeds people are going with 4:10s and having success with them. was the engine upgraded at all when it was rebuilt? that's stuff you want to know. an ls1 driveshaft is a nice upgrade as well. other than that, you're lookin at tearing into the motor
