Default Edelbrock?

I have a quick question.

After my gears I am going to be in the market for a new MAF and T/B.. I think I am pretty set on the C&L 73mm MAF, but am still pondering which T/B to get. I saw a page on Edelbrock T/B's in a MM&FF mag, and was wondering if they are any good? They look good and the price is right, I was just wondering if it would be better to go with a BBK or some other brand. Do most of them come with a new TPS?

Any feedback would be cool, thanks ahead of time.

throttle bodies dont need to be super duper high quality, its just a brass door that opens and closes. i went with a used BBK unit from ebay and it performs fine. get a used unit on ebay or something, never buy a new TB, they are so overpriced.

Do like Dbeck said and get one off ebay but if you buy one the best brand is acufab but their expensive. Ebay is the best.

Yeah, they usually come with the new tps sensor. Everybody seems to get the BBK t/b and me as well...i havent heard anyone complain about the BBK t/b.

My buddies were looking on ebay while I was at work, and found a TB that was well priced, the add stated that it was an edelbrock/bbk throttle body, are they joined somehow? Because I have seen the adds in summit for the bbk, and in mmff for the edelbrock, they looked different though. I will most likely get one used, thanks guys, should I get a used MAF too, or get a new one?
