yeah, but he's talking about a ported V8 TB... so its even larger than your
V8 TB. in my opinion... if the V6 is stock, i wouldn't be fitting a ported
V8 TB unless the engine's displacement was increased. i don't know what the
effects of the mod you are trying would be, but i think you are going to
lose a lot of the bottom end power if you did this. but again, i don't have
any first-hand knowledge.

I don't have any problems with my v8 TB on a V6, except for the cable which is about an inch to long and "had" slack in it.
