Default 70mm throttle body sizing

I'm trying to buy a throttle body and came across a skunk 2 70mm throttle body for $200. I've got a golden eagle intake manifold. Do you think there is any problem with using the 70mm sizing throttle body going onto a 64mm manifold?

Port matching is not hard to do....i vote you buy the tb. Proven gains. Skunk2 however has a common problem of the butterfly sticking. Apparently many members on these boards have lost their engines to this problem. I picked up a holley tb but omni power has been recommended. Apparently they have an almost stock like butterfly. Seemless opening and does not stick.
