If you're going to have it apart for several weeks..... maybe coat your cylinder walls and tops of the pistons with oil. :slug:Comment

:bump:Well i started along and got to the the last bolt on the egr spacer with i managed to round off, so now i have to go to napa and get the reverse sockets and get it stripped off, just one of the many bumps in the road i plan on getting myself into, for the throttle body, how to you disconnect it from the car, i have everything on it taken apart and its layin in the engine bay but i can slide the round part inside of it out to get the actual throttle body off. Thanks for the suggestions it will make this go a lot smoother, once i get the upper intake off im going to start taking pictures to post here.Comment

i realize the bigger bore tb will bring more air in, but on a stock 5.0 what gains could one expect by boring the tb from 50 to 63mm? would it affect the low end any?Save a seal, club a liberal.Comment
