>Well you're right in that the V-8 throttle body is larger than the V-6
one, but with the stock injectors, the computer will sense a larger amount
of incoming air and enrichen the mixture for throttle openings, but at idle
it won't know the difference. Now if this is a TBI unit where the injection
for fuel is incorporated on the throttle body that would make a big
difference in that the vehicle would be running TOO RICK all the time--bad
for emissions and wouldn't pass the sniffer test, but with what you want to
do with changing over just the throttle bodies you shouldn't have any
problems--except get up and GOOOOO.
