Then go with a 50 mm throttle body. Look for a link to a guy called "The Fastman" and you should be able to find all you need for it. Happy towing

Same tb on both the 5.2 & 5.9s. They have a 50mm opening that tapers to 48 mm at the butterflies

If you drive the same as before the install, will the 50 save you any in mpg?
