    They can be bored out and reworked to a certain extent, but the
factory casting is a pretty limiting factor. Bruce Bridges from F&B
Performance Engineered Products started from scratch and designed a
series of billet aluminum throttle bodies for these engines. They
have a version for every conceivable engine combination, from mild to
wild. You can check 'em out at http://www.fbthrottlebodies.com.

    DML trivia: F&B is one of several companies which was born on the
DML! :-) Bruce is a DMLer and it was his participation here on this
list that led to his involvement in the performance throttle body
game.
