So this is something I am considering aswell, how much of a difference do you notice? any affect on MPG? and total cost is around 90? after returning a t body core?

Engine: 4.0 rebuilt w/ bored TB, banks header, upgraded ignition, 3 row rad, high flow h2o pump, 180* t-stat
total cost from thefastman.com is $130 after you return the core, but its worth it. he replaces the shaft with a custom stainless shaft and replaces the blade with a new feathered edge blade. he also smoothes the sensor ports on the TB to prevent whistling and installs a new throttle cable spring. i noticed better throttle response and about 2-3 MPG better after i installed mine...

would it be better to have a bored throttle body on the 97 intake manifold or a bored TB on the 99+ intake Mani?
