This board seems more PERFORMANCE oriented than any other board so this will do better here probably.
I don't know if any of you have noticed but the L67 owners now have a new Throttlebody they can use, The New Northstar throttlebody.
The maker is WPI aka Das Regal GS and he is selling it through 3800performance.com Some others have made there own kits for themselves!
Well I just emailed the maker of the kit for them and asked if he could maybe make us some adapters for the Northstar Throttlebody for the 96-97 3.4DOHC owners. The stock size is 75mm and it would need to be adapted down to the stock plenum input size, whatever that may be. Don't own a 96-97!
I know we have the option of RSM and them boring out the stock TB, but the kit for the L67 with maf and all is not much more than RSM. We also have the Vegeta option. This may not be a mod for every 96-97 owner looking for a bigger TB, but it might be another option you have, and its always nice to have options when modding.
I would like his input though.
Now the questions that need to be answered.
Can this work with the 96-97's?
Is 75mm too big?
The L67 kit uses the LS6 maf, what maf would we need?
The TB comes for a FWD, and everything I think we need. The adapter it there for the taper and to use the stock bolt location so you don't have to mod your stock plenum. Anything else we would need?
According to the Thread you can get those TB used on Ebay for like $50!
The NS kit doesn't have an exact price on it, but suppose to be close to the LS1 kit. The parts alone are $320 for them new that is TB and MAF. He will only be selling all new parts at first but might do some used parts later for cheaper.
