408 towing build
Im thinking of doing a 408 stroker build geared towards towing in my 2000 2500. It would use TEA ported 317's, a rotating assembly from texas speed, EPS truck torque 2 cam, and long tubes. I think I may also need a larger throttle body, such as the nick williams 92mm unit. Will this tb fit my stock intake? I feel a FAST setup might be overkill, considering this engine will seldom operate above 5500.

Ive tested the edelbrocks as well all of the OEM LS car/truck intakes, so i understand intake more than most.
I also had a bad expereince with an engine that was a terrible combination, and it sucked. I try to keep people out of the same situation as I was in. (First engine was 350 SBC, 882 heads, Single plane intake, 750 carb, 8.5:1 compression, 254/264 .525 lift solid flat tappet cam)

I have done a lot of testing on them, and they are really worth the money.

Your heading in my direction. I just added a FAST LSXRT I am going through some tuning issues but I can feel power picked up everywhere across the board.
I think a TBSS intake would be a nice addition as well. Much simpler tuning and install. Maybe not as good but gains are gains.
Should be a real nice driver with whatever intake you pick.
