Edelbrock or BBK
I will be purchasing a new Trick flow intake and new TB. Which is a better throttle body between the two. Which size would you guys prefer. I think a 70 will be about right. Is the Trick Flow intakes much better than the stock intakes ported and polished?? Thanks

Well I ordered the BBK and it has BBK wrote on one side and Edelbrock wrote on the other, so they must be made by the same company.

both the 70 and 75 are $220 @ excessive motorsports but most people hate them. (800-930-9585 I know other people have them too.

Get the MAC TB and spacer together for like $180.00. They look real nice (saw one at a show this weekend) and you cant beat the price. For the best value in TB and spacer, MAC is where its at.
