Whats your engine combo???? Unless you have something really wild, 65mm is plenty...

I have heard that anything over 60mm for a stock motor, will make you bog down ibgtime. Switch it out after you install a H.O. camshaft.

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.

MY motor has a 65MM TB, I cannot see your stock one needing anything greater than that!
