just wondering, i got a 95 Gt5.0 with 2 chamber flows, off raod h pipe and a mac-fenderwell cold air induction. I want to know who knows what kind and what size throttle body should i get to get a little more throttle response and power. What size do these 95 5.0 come stock on the throttle body? How much hp will i make, I know not much, but just curious.

I believe the stockers are like 63mm or 65mm, Im gonna be getting a 70mm myself...
as far as hp... I read 7hp to 10hp, but that's peak flywheel hp...

I was asking around about the same thing on what to get next: throttle body or pulleys. why would the pullies be better? why won't a throttle body add some decent power?

Right now your throttle body isn't restricting your air intake that much right now. Pullies are always a cheap, proven and effective bolt on.

Save some money for gears the T/B will do very little.

Everyone is right...The stock TB is not really that retrictive especially with the stock intake and heads..The stock TB is 60mm, if you added a 70mm on a stock intake you might get away with 5rwhp...Its not worth it for you right now...

IF you get a TB Ford Motorsports (FRPP) make a nice quality 65mm, it comes with new sensors too...I had the 70mm TB BBK/Edelbrock and it made a big difference in the low end...I also had to remove one of the two throttle return springs cuase the accelerator was hella hard to push with the BBK TB springs it came with...

If you want bang for buck get some ASP underdrive pulleys and some FMS 3.73 gears first... [patriot]
