V8 tb's
 
ive been hearing alot about how you can put v8 throttle bodies on the V6. just wondering if i got one from a junkyard off a 4.7 if it would just bolt right up and would i need to modify the intake to get the full effect from the bigger throttle body?

thanks

take a look at a 4.7 throttle body, and then look at your throttle body.... and then you tell me if it will bolt up.

i dont have one yet i was just making sure that before i got one it would bolt up, i dont know that much about motors yet but im learning with everything i do, and do i need to grind my intake out to match?

thanks

3.9/5.2/5.9



if you can make something to attach a 4.7 throttle body to your intake mani, then go ahead and do it

a 5.2/5.9, 98-03 will work for your truck. the only other thing you will need is a throttle v8 throttle cable 98-03. ive done this swap on my truck and someone asks about it like twice a week.
