who makes the best throttle body???

I am in the market for a new throttle body and would appreciate any advice or experiences with the various brands available. The reason I need a different one is because my T-Ram intake and accessory/kick down bracket was designed for a "92" TPI which uses a different throttle cable end than my "87". I fabricated a adapter, but would like to use the correct part. Also, this set up rev's well past 6000 RPM's with power(just ask the kid in the 2000 Salleen).
I think a larger throttle body would be benificial.

I think that all the TBs are pretty much the same. Holley, Edelbrock, TPIS, BBK, I don't think it really matters, just get the least expensive one!

Yeah they are all about the same. The hardest part is trying to get the IAC & coolant gizmo off the bottom of the old one w/o breaking it.
