Actually, the 52mm is too big for a V6 (tried that one already). It'll work
well on a V8 though..may be a little bit too big for the 318 though
(recommended for the 360).

Subject: DML: Diff between v6 and v8 TBs

I know this has been covered countless times, but this one is a little
different. I know the throttle linkages are different between the v6 and v8,
and the stock bore size is smaller. I ran across a Holley billet 52mm TB
that is for the v6. Part number 112-156. Would I be able to drop it on my V8
with a cable change, or is there going to be a difference on where the ports
line up on the intake? I currently have an M1 on my 92 318 with a home
ported/polished TB, which I assume is right at 50mm after the porting.
