NNBS 5.3 throttle body upgrade
Hi all
as the title says what will be a good upgrade for my throttle body?
i think its 87mm since its a 5.3L (LY5)
a local workshop here told me that he upgrade the truck throttle to ls7 throttle
the problem is that no body do the porting job for the tb (i dont live in the US)
am trying to get the most of my engine since am gonna upgrade the cam and lifter
any suggestions?
thanks

the problem is am not from the states
i can ship it to be ported easily but will end costing so much shipping to the US then porting and Shipping back to me so i estimate the total cost for porting with shipping to be 300+ $ / ls7 throttle body is around 280$ new from gmpartsdirect.com
i hope to find somebody who will do the porting locally
thanks

That is expensive, I paid $80 including shipping both ways.
