Exclamation Guess what I found?!

Ok so my drivers door sags pretty bad (still pissed bout it) so I went to my favorite junkyard for hinges. Now besides playing in the yard 2 days after a snow storm and that I got them off a durango (hope they are the same, I did pull them from the same door at least) I DID find 2 V8 TB.

I already put one on my truck (best mod so far, probably helped by the K&N drop in and my exhaust) so I snagged them to sell. Thought Id offer them to you all first

They came of late 90's ram work vans and I grabbed the cables too. They had weird connections, not like my V6 or the V8 I have. I havnt cleaned them yet and they look rough but in good mechanical order.

Anyone interested?

Well Im not sure whats fair. Make me an offer (feel free to PM or email me) and we can go from there. I got mine cheap, at least from what I understand they are worth. But I dont want to get ripped of and I do want to give you all a deal if I can.

I also have my stock V6 TB that Id sell but no cable for that one. Cut the damn thing off to get my V8 cable on. It wouldnt let go and swearing and yelling didnt help enough. My dad looked at me funny but I won so its ok

I was thinking bout keeping one to P&P to upgrade the TB I JUST put on. I do need the bench grinder and to find my dremel too....

Would I notice a difference on my 3.9l tho? Im sure there is a limit to the gains I can get before I need to mod something else. How bad can I F it up by a home done P&P? I dont have good luck lol

Yes, there's and affect. There's a bigger effect when you port match the intake manifold.
