So we have a 00 Dakota R/T black extended cab in my area, a family member got it at an auction, so my brother can get it from him for 3k. Has 66k miles and he thinks hes ready to own his first vehicle. Glad its a Mopar. Anyways he has little money working at the grocery store so we decided that we are going to start modding intake mainfold and throttle bodies. Most likely throttle bodies will be $99.95 shipped then a $30 refund for your old core. Thats for a 50mm all polished. The 52mm will be a bit more as I havent gotten the blades yet. The intake mainfold with have the runners cut and some minor port and polishing with options of high temp paint. Thinking $160 for the mainfold with $50 refund for core. Sorry for rant, but just letting people know. Will hopefully get started when he gets out of school for break.

so I decided for my brother he better understand what he is getting himself into and by not screwing this up. HeyYou and RamSport97 how much would shippping cost for your items? If I can I would like to basically offer a promotion and that is I need a few throttle bodies to mod and in return they will be super cheap for those people who send me thiers. I figure this way the people that get them can tell others and see if they like them or not. Also once we sell enough of these I will get the throttle body and intake mainfold dynoed

PM me your zip code, and I will have a look at shipping costs. For the throttle body, prolly won't be that bad, but, the manifold...... even being aluminum, is HEAVY.
