Both good brands, both billet. Go with which ever you like better or you can get cheaper.

Re: (Mr Wonderfull)

I thinks its BDL who makes Ericks if I remember correctly! I have a ericks racing, worked great, looked great and performed great!

RPM,BDL, ERicks racing all make great throttle boddies....

Re: (inspyral)

I severely dislike BBK, Skank2, and one other that slips my mind right now.

The BBK wasn't correctly designed and I had to remove the metal inserts in the TPS slots to get enough throw to correctly set the TPS. It had no air bleed/idle screw.

Skank2 = sticks squared.

The one-I-can't-remember was a brand name billet a fried bought that would stick when the engine got warm. It's probably just as well, because the TB was a factory second aka "blem" he'd bought off eGay. There's a reason that TB didn't make QC.

Same here, really nice units for a reasonable price. They look for all intents and purposes like an OEM piece (the satin finish ones, anyway). It's a shame they don't come in larger than 68mm sizes, but I made 585 whp @ 28 psi with .39 bsfc off the last car I tuned running one so it's not exactly an obstruction.

do these stick at all?

i have an edelbrock (not JG) and after full throttle it sticks, and sometimes it remains slightly open causing high idle! (it sucks!)

RPM Services 78-76mm TB is great!

Cotact me if you need one. Also the Skunk2 TB's are very nice as well. Contatc me on either one. Their are things that can be done according to Skunk2 and DonF to resolve the stock plate issues. Either way good luck

man i had a skunk2 also and it didnt work at all, it will stick like glue (shut), i called skunk2 and they said it was normal because they are made that way so that car engineers can adjust them. Who the fk is an engineer here? -so i sent it back so they can adjust it, and still sticked, so i sold it!
