think it can be searched with either using 4.7 or 4.0 intakes or throttle body

he said it's not on his site yet but should be on it by the end of the weekend

I've been in touch with Jeepers and Creepers and they are planning a 70mm throttle body. They already have a billet 62mm available, so I asked about creating a larger one and it was something they have been thinking about. http://www.jeepersandcreepers.com/13601.html

+1 in interest. I will be buying a 70 from someone........To take advantage of the air flow it will be combined with a conversation to OBD2 for the tuning capability.

That would be nice, another 70mm TB, hopefully less then $400 that R+B charges.

It will be more than their 62mm one, but less than the F&B.

I'm going to running the 4.0 to 4.2 mini stroker with a 99+ intake and 24# Ford injectors. I'm also going to have a snorkel on the Jeep (95 ZJ)...after needing it on my last Jeep I won't own one without it. My question here is since I'm going to be running a snorkel are the benefits of running this throttle body and adapter worth the expense or will the restriction from the snorkel negate any good that might have been? Would I need the better throttle body to offset the restriction from the snorkel?

What's the inside diameter of the snorkle, any idea?

[shawnxj]

ya kinda depends on what the snorkle size is

Do a search on Static Pressure. For example Woodworking dust collection sites have all kinds of information on airflow, restriction etc. By plugging on your numbers you can see how the snorkel will flow and wheter it will have an impact on your engines requirements.

Off hand opinion......The added tube length and bends of the snorkel will not have any ill effect.

It's not a constant diameter like homemade PVC type ones...it's a knock-off of the Safari Snorkel.

I'll look into that. Thanks for the lead!

How about a TB from a ford 5.4? Saw one in a junk yard today looks like with a little mods it might work.

I dunno, if it's anything like the one on my GT, I would think it wouldn't. I say that because the T/B on my Stang is mounted horizontally rather than vertically. Otherwise, I'd slap a 70mm on for about $140 new! Maybe Dino can shed some light on this since he's used a T/B from a Ford. Also, an adapter might be in order??? I need to go lift the hoods and compare the two setups.
