The Fast throttle bodies have very small iac ports which limit airflow before the iac motor is out if range. This usually leads to cold start issues on larger cammed engines even after hot idle counts are minimized.

For cable driven or dbw I have the best results with Nick Williams. (If stock is not sufficient size, and it often is)

I'd try to keep an intake the same diameter as the TB.... if there's no room I've seen a two into one...


Real world --- the small (tiny) air cleaner on the '33 Ford -- kills about 100 HP on the dyno.
