I have been searching for a while and found myself rather confused. I read Blackcoogs thread about his how to and other peoples posts. What in everyones opinion is better for a setup: 3.0UIM and TB or the 3.0 UIM and SVT TB. Please give all the input you can. Which one is easier, which one is better.

If I was using an aftermarket intake w/ the throttle hang fix, I would use the SVT. I say this because the intake will already have a throttle body bypass hole in the pipe. The bypass tube allows the option of a throttle hang fix.
If you do not use the throttle hang fix and already have an SVT tb, then I would use the 3L tb. Just swap the spring and etc over to the 3L casting, and mount the IACV to the top of the manifold. This is the easiest way, as you would not have to worry about modifying the IACV and have a lesser chance of air leaks.

It will flow similiar amounts of air as the svt, but have a stronger midrange powerband. You will notice a difference.
