    still doesnt make it a concern. depending on what you swap it to you use that TB. just cause a motor has a GBW on it doesnt mean it is a GBW motor. just means the TB is GBW

    a motor has no idea what TB it has.
    2002 Lightning - GT headed 5.5Litre w/ Twin 7665s
    2002 Silverado - 427Lsx w/ Twin gt4202s
    2010 Silverado crewcab Z71 - 5.3litre w/ procharger
    2000 Wrangler - 5.3litre with some stance
    2014 Xsport- 3.5 Eco boost

    it ain't that I'm too big to listen to the rumors, It's just that I'm too damn big to pay attention to 'em..That's the difference

    your right, the engine does not have an idea of what throttle it has and it probably does not care either, but the person buying it might when he has to pay more or less for different equipment on the engine.

    That's when you price it as a long block with one price and as a complete engine with another price specifying the differences.
