I tried a few of the pro prod throttle bodies. Out of 4 throttle bodies 3 of them had a sticking problem just as the throttle craked open. We were able to take care of the issue on all of them with some 1000 grit and about 20 minutes. We had one 75mm that a customer brought in that whistled so bad it sounded like it had a blower. As far as the BBK's go we never had a single problem with any of them. They arn't as pretty as the Accufab but work great.
