generally, automatic TB's have a larger core diameter as they need to 'inhale' more air than a 5 spd due to the lower RPM gear shifts.
I figure i can get a used automatic TB for cheaper than I can get mine bored out...

Originally posted by bruce95fmlaI really don't mind my throtle body. I think it is pretty large.
I mean, I can get the TB bored for next to nothing, but, less of a hassle if the auto's TB is already larger than the stick...
Any online sources so I can x-reference the part numbers?

Figureing if it costs you only 15 to 20 bucks..
On this one you may have to do your own research..
Imagine if the whole intake manifold was different.
