I wonder if maybe the TB doesn't work as well on the 318s and the 360s??

Doug-

Same deal here, except I replaced the stocker and didn't get the gains
I expected. I did before and after dyno runs and I shared them with
Bruce. He has delivered a mod to the TB (a little doo-hickie that
modified the vacuum tube that feeds the MAP sensor), but I haven't
been able to get back to the dyno to evaluate/verify the results.

When I do, I'll post the results.

And no, it's not a V6 TB, it's a 50mm V8 TB ;)
