Throttle bodies on a 2.8 86 Firebird...

Are there any larger throttle bodies that fit on an 2.8 86 firebird?

I'm looking for some saturday afternoon mods I can do since my car is my everyday ride.

There used to be an aftermarket company that made them,. but the TB is not the biggest restriction in the intkae tract. By simply going to a larger TB you'll get a stumbling issue because of other airflow characteristics in the intake.
