Default Throttle Body

I just brought a new throttle body for my truck. It is a 50mm bore. That has been bored and polished. The top has been angled. I like to find somebody who has the 50mm and/or 52/53mm throttle body.

Hey everybody needs a sense of humor.

Mine is also a home brew that I got from ebay.

I was told by this guy and the fastman that the 52 is for modified engines, And the 50mm would be better in my case, due to the large tires. I hope it makes a difference. Can not wait to install it.

50mm is ideal for a 5.2l
52mm is ideal for a 5.9l

when you have a majorly modified motor you will want a bigger bore and that is when you have the fastman do a custom bore for you.

my 50mm is home brew also (20$ for it and the machining just cost time) but i haven't driven the truck enough to relearn the idle yet. it is still idling around 1000 rpm. but i've only driven it about 30 miles since the install.
