Injectors, and butterflies different.  I don't know if the castings are
the same, so boring it for larger butterflies might not work.
If doing stock SBC use the 350 TBI, If cammed etc., might think
about using a BBC throttle body with larger butterflies/injectors.
In round numbers it's like 4.3/1.6", 5.7/1.8", 7.4/2"
