vac or dinan throttle bodies?

If there’s a way to do it wrong, VAC will find it.

P54B32 catalog has different part numbers for the throttle bodies. If the fuel injector bores are the same on both S54 and P54 ITBs even though the fuel injectors are different, then they possibly did do some bored out throttle bodies on the P54. That engine did have very aggressive cam options, so unless you go beyond CSL 268/264 with something like a Schrick 280/272 or 288/280, probably not worth boring out ITBs.

you're in a world of suck if VAC is your only option for parts

i would have a chat to Partee racing see if they do this for their engines they may offer the service

Porting the throttle bodies is a valid way of making more power, regardless of the vehicle. The more air you can get in and out, the more power you'll make. So, in that line of thought, doing the throttle bodies is definitely worth it.

VAC probably can probably port a throttle body fine, but they are known for putting out shoddy quality products, so they aren't highly trusted on this forum.

If the only reason you're considering VAC is price, then you 100% should not be doing an all-motor build. That is not the place to be frugal.

Word, just curious more than anything. How bad throttle bodies can wreck your engine. And how VAC could screw these up.

If they came apart you would definitely have some bad engine damage, they would REALLY have to mess things up for that to happen however.
