So i got a 4.3 out of a truck with tbi, and it was sitting outside uncovered (the throttle body) and i was wondering if this would hurt it at all, and i need to have it rebuilt or not.

It looks in good shape from what i can see but just wanted to check. i mean, it went through hurricane katrina and everything, lol

Rebuild it to be safe. Water is awful nasty on stuff. It'll eat through ALOT.
