I don't doubt that they look nice...I'm kind of partial to the anodized
RED or BLUE Blades anyway. :)

On a slightly modified (bolt-ons mainly) 5.2/5.9, 50mm is great for
low-end and top end. 52mm, definitely for Nitroused, Supercharged, or
heavily modified (Cam/Heads/etc.).

Yup, the older Billets did have a problem and that was solved on the
shaft...No problems now. Holley also has two flavors...stock and
modified sensors (modified sensors are adjustable but not for the
average user).

Hey Bernd,

I Just happen to have the Holley 52mm unit

I had a Tony D(fastman) unit on prior( worked flawlessly)

The Holley is Fully polished and has pretty red butterfly's that say
Holley and it works with all the sensor flawlessly.

we were all set to do a dyno comparison and the original writer backed
out and sent all the test units back.

Mine works great and is one if not the prettiest T.B's available

Also you are right about the T.B. having to work with the sensors
correctly , the only trouble on the sensors has been with some of the
early F&B units to my knowledge , I did have a buddy with some problems
but Bruce went out of his way to make it work.

50mm lightly modded, 52mm there on up and blown ......bigger is
better...!
