Geezus... Look, you CAN make ITBs work, but it'd be pointless on this motor unless you can change the intake profile on the VVEL. Yes, you can make the VVEL handle them better, but all you REALLY need on this motor is a bigger air inlet since the throttle bodies don't have anything to do with the intake system. Getting the ITBs to fit would require making VERY long primary runners which can increase torque a lot but you won't see as much help with HP.

I'd suggest that someone removes the blades from the throttle bodies to increase CFM and see how that goes first.
