I was thinking....wouldn't a 58mm throttle body be a bit too big for a 350? I've heard too large of a throttle body could rob an engine and cause it to run strange. Too much air. 58mm throttle bodies are usually used for applications some where over 4,5 or 600HP right? If you have around that much HP, you should be good with it. I'm not too sure though....i've heard these things.
