I did some looking this evening at the throttle body. I'm thinking there is some power to be had with it. Here are a few pics.
You could smooth the inlet and make it a tad larger. Also, notice in the other pic, the TB blade isn't even 90* open. That is definately killing air.
I have access to a dyno, so I'm going to do some ported on the TB and see if it is possible to make the blade open to 90*. Afterward, I'll redyno and see if it even helps.
When this is done on LS1's, you can gain around 10hp on some.
