302 buildup

I have a 94 stepside with the 302 in it gonna, Im putting some Tricklow R heads on it and the bottom end is a 347 stroker with a cola crank my question is the intake setup where can i find a decent sized throttle body setup up for the truck , the two port deal if it was a mustang i would have limitless possibilities and if i cant find a big enough setup how hard is a mustang intake swap?

You can't do a mustang intake swap because of the direction. You can get a BBK/Edelbrock throttle body in 56mm or 61mm sizes, 329 and 360 respectively. I just got one off ebay for 265

I've seen stock 5.0 intakes for sale on the corral and ebay all the time. However, my brother just did a Lightning upper and (5.0L) lower intake conversion on his 94 F-150. He also picked up a FMS 65mm T-body too, and I gave him the old plumbing and various other pieces i had on my 94 L.
With that stroker, a GT-40 setup might be a better choice...they're less restrictive and the long runners help out in the "torque" department. Either way, the swap isn't too bad at all. There are a few minor things that will need to be addressed though...wiring harnesses, throttle cable, plumbing/tubuing, etc...
