> [@neonmike22](#): > > There isin’t really, i only picked up 1hp (speednation’s dyno) going from 49mm to 57mm. > > Most people buy them anyhow _shrugs_ thats what i thought. larger TBs are good for high rpm cars then need that extra cfm. a low hp/tq motor would be better with a smaller one then a larger one. in this case he just wasted more money instead of just cleaning up his some with some porting to clear up any factory imperfections ---

Fortunately (?) the 90 degree bend in the manifold is narrow enough that it won’t hurt power more or less no matter what size TB you have. > [@The1SloShelby](#): > > ya i might im gonna go do a little more work to it today… > i’ll let you know I’ve seen you drive right past my house going to wilmerding! 😉 ---
