I always get either too busy, too lazy, or no help.

as soon as i sell the catback and downpipe. getting shipping quotes for them for two people on monday cause i forgot to leave the lake early and do it yesterday

and he's gotta figure out whats wrong with the trans. its leaking a little fluid so he's not sure if its a hairline cracked housing or leaking around the gasket. cause it drivers just fine, nothing wrong internally, just leaking. so he's gonna fix that too. but i'll be getting a spair transmission along with the car.

Question Any thoughts welcome.

I placed my order for my tune over the weekend (Trifecta) BUT I am having second, third and fourth thoughts about the mods I will be using for my build. LOL

The two I keep waffling on are
1. the LS4 throttle body vs. the LSJ throttle body.
2. 42# injectors vs. 60# injectors

This car is my daily driver and I already have all the parts listed above but I'm just not sure which ones to run on my car. My biggest concern w/ the LS4 TB is the smoothness of it, especially at idle.

Since I have the 60's, should I just use them..? Also concerned about the smoothness at idle.

Any thoughts would greatly be appreciated.

Thanks,
-Springer

Properly tuned, 60's and the LS4 TB, shouldn't be an issue.
