you can get a 75mm TB off summitracing for about half of the cost of that one.

I still dont know why people are obsessed with using LMS as an aftermarket parts source, resto parts... sure

but summit is almost ALWAYS cheaper

So 75mm TB and a 75mm MAF is an ok set-up???

btw, it depends what your buying, 50resto sells some nice kits, summit does sell certain things for cheap.

Its not ideal, but there is nothing wrong with it. You never want your maf to be smaller than your TB, same size is ok-ish.

and i'll never buy anything from 50resto. their hidden shipping charges are ****ing retarded. Im not happy with their customer service, and i hate their website.

Summit however has already had several thousand dollars of my business, and I couldnt be happier with their service and personnel.

fwiw, you could get an LMAF for $90... new

its flat rate 15bucks. But, I order from the following

mustangsunlimited
50resto
summitracing
cjponyparts

or direct.

But, I never pin it down to one supplier

research prices than buy from the cheapest.

SO, when it comes to the throttle body.

I don't think i can/should go bigger than a 75mm Throttle Body.

If I get a 70mm TB, than 75mm MAF will be perfect??????

If I get a 75mm TB, than an 80mm or 90mm MAF will be perfect????

hit me up.
