Default Throttle Body& Mass Air

Ok the Ford swap meet in Columbus, Ohio is a week away cant wait gonna look for some sweet deals went last year it was sweet anyways I want to buy a Throttle Body and Mass Air Sensor up there. Is a 70MM throttle Body overkill? I am gonna eventually get a intake and heads But I am having underdrive pullies, headers and full exhuast BBK catless x-pipe and Flows 40 series but if i am gonna eventually get a intake and heads is a 70MM throttle body ok? Also for the Mass air sensor should I go with 73MM or 76MM? I know it has to bigger than the throttle body but should I go with 73MM or 76MM? Thanks Patrick

70 right now will hurt some low end. also stock intakes dont realy like a 70mm opening. you will have enlarge your opening to adapt it. i would get a 65 and call it a day

if you are going to do a h/c/i then i would get the 70mm a 73mm or a 76mm MAF either will be fine. I have a 76mm on my car
