They work poorly on 5.0s. That said, however, it's very difficult to dyno-tune a Mustang with a C&L, because the electronics are calibrated for the stock MAF housing, and I always tell the customer to use a Pro-M instead.<br />We used to use FMS 70mm throttle bodies for the SOHC, but they recently started drilling a small hole in the throttle butterfly, causing a 1,400rpm idle on every car we've tested. We've since switch to the BBK 70mm, but they, too, have problems. We have to drill out the hole for the throttle cable end, as it's too small from BBK. We also have to pry the cable retention plate apart a bit, since it's too tight to even get the cable in! Ugh. We deal with this sort of thing every day, and let me tell you, it gets old!<br />I agree that on a basically stock car, the throttle body won't do a whole lot. But it won't hurt, either, and every little bit counts! <br /> </font> </td></tr> </table></td></tr></table> <br /> <br />
