I also picked up a BBK and haven't had any problems to speak of, but if you have the funds I hear Accufab is the way to go.

Proffesional Products here. Smooth, cheap, shiny, comes with a tps. Most people that have problems with it sticking open or closed are because they don't put a little dab of grease in the socket where the throttle cable is snapped in.

My Accufab doesn't stick and I put no grease in that socket, when I swapped out my junky pro products tb.

if you got the money get the accufab. no whistle at all. other wise i think the ford one will be the next best one, plus it comes with a TPS sensor. my accufab doesn't stick either. did i mention no whistle at all?

well thanks for all who participated in my poll........definatly looks like accufab is on top with fms and bbk bringing up the rear......sounds like the pro products has some issues, so i definatly will be staying away from them.......

I've had a couple of different TB's, including an edebrock, and FMS, nothing near as nice as an Accufab.

Anyone that didn't vote for an accufab probably never has had one.

I've run FMS, Edelbrock, Proffessional Products and now Accufab.

Accufab has a great reputation and the best flow numbers.

The proffessional products throttle body needed to be redrilled to line up with the intake.

If you have a 93 or older, you'll need the TB and spacer.
And don't use a C&L, use a pro m (or now known Professional Mass Air systems) If your combo is mild you can get a 75mm MAF, if is a bit more powerful get a 80mm. I don't see a list of engine mods on your car, if the heads are stock, just use 19's.

I have used both the BBK and Pro Products. My BBK whistled bad, the Pro Products has been top notch. Love the way they have the TPS adjustments set-up on it.

I would buy the Pro Products agian over the other brands.
