the stock TB is great
What are the specs of this "race" cam? Are still running the std heads and intake manifold? Any other mods, xorst, etc...?

No probs...let us know how it turns out. These AU 5L's respond real well to a decent cam

No point going bigger TB unless you go different plenum as the opening is 65mm, IIRC, so even the 70mm TBs are kind of a waste.
