    Acquiring the throttlebody is the easy part. Now you need sensor pig tail adapters, lq4 Maf, tune for lq4 maf tables, and adapter plate. You might also want an aluminum upper intake to port so you can get more air in.

    Uh ported lim and hv3 would be better than an l26 uim which has almost no benefit other than not being prone to warping.

    Also N* is too large unless youre using boost.

    How much air do you expect your engine to flow?

    If its less than 550 CFM, then an L67 TB is just fine.

    If anything, port that LIM I sent you

    Then, HV3...ported L67 TB...re-tune on a WB.

    After that...flow mods and another re-tune?
