Once again I am coming to the all knowing forum... Does anyone know the opening measurement of the intake manifold? I'm wanting to install a aftermarket throttle body (I haven't ordered it yet). I pretty sure I can put a 70mm TB on, but I am wanting to put a 75mm TB on. Obviously, if the opening is smaller than 75mm, the bigger one will do me no good. I've literally looked for an hour on the 'net for the answer. The time I wasted doing that I coulda took my TB off and measured it myself... Thanks for any help...
 






Stay with a 70mm throttle body and you will be fine. I put a 75mm on mine and it gave me no HP advantage whatsoever.
 






Thanks for the info...

I appreciate the answer, I'm not looking to do anything extreme to my engine either (i.e. porting engine, supercharger) so I will more than likely stay with the 70mm to save any headaches.
