Default What year TBSS manifold and tb to get
Hello. I am looking to get a tbss intake manifold and tb. What year is the best to get or are they all the same? I found a website that sells them brand new CHEAP!!!

Also what typical gains will I get by doing the tbss set up? Thanks in advance

What are the typical gains for doing the swap? Is it even worth it?

got my TBSS used for $100. I got my 87mm truck tb for $100 also. Also, that price you got doesn't include intake bolts. My 78mm intake bolts weren't long enough to work. BTW, they are $20 a piece.

TBSS and LS2 tb's are both 90mm, not sure if there is any performance difference. But yes, tbss intake swap is a good mod.
