    Question 85mm throttlebody

    just wondering, would an 85mm throttlebody bolt up and work properly with a 5.3l intake manifold

    but it should bolt right up to the manifold right? i was thinking about the P.P.tb and it does come with a spacer i believe.

    Yeah, it will bolt up. If you get the p p it comes with the spacer.

    would a p p throttle body be much better that a stock ported one

    Would you gain anything going to a larger diameter TB if the intake is still the same size?

    I would say it would be about the same gains as a ported factory tb but bigger diameter. The less you have in the way the better it will breath.
