The 4 barrel tb's around 1000-1200 cfm are very streetable. I did go from one of those to a single 75mm monoblade on a Procharged big block, and definitely picked up throttle response. I run the monoblades on nearly everything. As far as size, even the factory uses a 90mm now, so anything up to that isn't too big. The secret is in the tune, but a super large monoblade can cause issues since very little throttle movement gives big increases in airflow. Anything up to 90mm would not fall under that in my opinion.
