Nope. This was a thread that was, if I'm not mistaken, 15+pages long. Everyone got involved and was very informative. I don't know if I'm confusing it with another, but I don't think so.
That's one of the ones I read. Damn, am I going freakin crazy? I could've sworn there was a super long, never ending thread about it.

What did I do? I just tried to find a long TB thread. I saw all the numbers that David put in the opening post and thought that might be a good one.
That said, I often don't get wrapped up in the theoretical threads, nor do I even read most of them.

Thinking outside the box is fun
besides
We need more help to go from theory to fact
You could make a very significant contribution to those threads
and lastly but most importantly
94-95 :SNSign: is one of those rare places if not the ONLY place where
One can submit something or ask something that is different from mainstream
thinking and not get flamed or made fun of which clearly shows quality
peeps hang here

Oh, oh, either Grady put me on ignore or he didn't know how to take me on that "motor" comment. I was just bustin yer chops man. Nothing bad intended.
See ... Here is what you don't know about Texans
They be a lazy bunch of folk when it comes to talkin
Since that applies to me and my speech
then
Its just naturally gonna be so ... when I type stuff
Why would I wanna go to the trouble to type E N G I N E
when
I can type M O T O R which has 1 less letter
and
Everybody knows what I'm a talkin about anyway
Then ... You got the fact that I'm an Old Man
and
I got to be a bit weird cause ...................................... its expected

I could potentially send you my FMS 65mm TB, which isn't much better than stock as far as cfm flow though and I believe you have that already.
But if anything I could take it off my car and send it your way...
I'd prefer you get a 65 of a better flowing brand though

oh darn
I settled with 65mm FMS. anything else would be an over kill for me. i was thinking about going bbk or edel. but i liked the fact that it came with all new sensors. what do you guys think should i take it out and put a better flowing one? for my set up? and how much flow difference am i gonna have?
Can't believe we are doing this again....

Hollywood - Your throttle body looks fine for the cfm your engine can take in. Killercanary on here was running 112.51mph in a 3600lb (maybe a bit less) on a h/c/i car, looks like it wasn't holding it back He was running the FMS 65mm TB.
What I was saying to Sage was that I would rather him compare 65-70-75 of the same brand, and not 65 (FMS), and 70-75 of an Accufab. It would't be a consistent comparison...
The 65mm from Accufab flows more than the 65mm from FMS...but most of the time the FMS unit will work...as killercanary show.

Well guys, due to some VERY reliable sources whom have done extensive experimentation with TBs, they've concluded that in this case, bigger IS better. So I'm going with the 75mm TB.
Thanks
