I need to start getting some more parts for my build. Just had a few questions before ordering.

I recently just sold my Accufab 70mm throttle body, I want to go bigger with my build. Will a 75mm be appropriate for my goal of 600rwhp? I have only ever dealt with Accufab, considering its just a throttle body, could I just grab a BBK or Edelbrock one, do they perform just as well?

Next I want to look into is upgrading my stock radiator. What is the best type of look at?

Last part I want to get soon is an ugpraded oil pan. Canton? Moroso? Any particular one I should look at?


Thanks

I went with the 75mm BBK because it was much cheaper but if you find a used Accufab snatch it up.
I also went with a Fluidine radiator for the auto. Best price was on ebay by far.

I decided to stick with the stock oil pan until someday upgrading the K member to a MM because of some complaint on fitment.

accufab is THE BEST out there, I wouldnt be suprised if the 70mm out flowed the 75 from other companies. They make the best product, most r&d and alot of guys in NMRA run their products for a reason!!!.

As far as the oil pan they all will work fine. Whats your reasoning for using a deeper pan. A good friend of mine from Modular Performance has sold a TON of the Canton oil pans. Great product.

yeah, i can definitely say that the Accufab one i had along with their plenum was awesome quality and i put down great power with them. I upgraded to the 6061 race plenum and wanted to upgrade to the 75mm for best airflow results so maybe I'll just grab Accufab's 75mm as well.

I just wanted to keep my motor as cool as possible especially with the setup I will be running. Which is why I want to get a new radiator and oil pan. I actually really really like MMR's oil pan, it comes pre tapped as well for Vortech superchargers.

Ask Adam from Mod Misfits how he feels about Accufab... I remember his writeups bashing their products and price and how he gained ET & MPH with other TB/Plenums on his old 2V.

Only benefit I ever saw from an Accufab over say a BBK or FRPP was it was more shiny.
