BBK, HOLLEY or machined
basicly I have a set of LE1 heads on the way with a le2 cam and the last thing i need is a throttle body. I was looking at ones that were machined out to 54mm. my question, is there any reason not to go with a machined unit? also would I see any gains from going with the 58mm over the 54mm with the above setup. thanks

Re: BBK, HOLLEY or machined
Well what I want to spend and what i end up spending never seems to be the same. heres what I dont want, I dont want to spend an extra 170 for the 58mm and only get 2-3 hp over the 54mm I dont even think 5hp would be worth it, I could put 170 into other things that would see a larger power increase. If I had the LE3 heads or even the le2 heads I would say ya im goin to need 58mm to feed them, but with le1 heads would it just be over kill? they will only flow so much air right?
