Throttle body observation..



    Today at work I was working on a 2.8 V6 two valve, and could not help but 
notice the throttle body.  It is the basic two stage throttle body that came 
on all the NA I5's of the 80's, but the V6's primary port was actually about 
half the size of the I5 throttle body.  A smaller throttle body in a motor 
that is 30% bigger and puts out 50 more power and torque.  Hmm, kinda makes 
one skoff at the "big bore throttle body" idea, definitely the last place to 
look to for more power...   ;)
