Crate 380 with a Throttle body?
When the time comes, I'm looking at getting a crate 380 for my 90 Ramcharger. Besides adding bigger injectors, I'm wondering if I can get the throttle body to work at all with it. Or am I going to have to do away with the throttle body and get a carb? I am mainly worried about the wiring nightmare, from losing the TB and using the simple carb setup. It would be alot easier to get the throttle body to work.......just upgrade it. Any Ideas? Thanks.

If the truck doesnt already have TB on it then your looking in to a nightmare. But holley makes a real nice kit but expect to pay 1000-1500 for it all. Which isnt bad but to me the carb looks better price wise. We have a Holley 750 vac sec. that has some goodies in it. We get instant throtle response and good gas millage out of her. We are pushing 14mpg with the 4.56's. It would look good though cause then with the TB you could throw a super charger on her and really make her scream.

Yup, she already has a TB on her. I guess I have looked for performance throttle bodies for it yet. This post is the first looking into it I've done. So they do make them. Cool. That just made an engine swap all the easier! Thanks!
