That's the problem I'm having now trying to buy stock ones. When I started this a little over a year ago, I was able to buy them for $15-$20 shipped and now for some reason, people and salvage yards think they are made of gold...wanting $50-$100 each!

You are spot on about the low end power. The 65mm is going to give you more bottom end and the 68mm will be more top end. A guy on another site used a 65mm on his '02 model truck because he does a lot of towing. The 65mm actually out performed the 68mm with bottom end torque.

I was able to purchase 2 of the '99-'00 65mm and 1 of the '03-'07 68mm today. They are supposed to be shipped tomorrow and I look for them to arrive on Monday. LMK if you want one of these and I'll reserve one for you.

These guys might be worth a call to see if you can get used throttle bodies.
I don't know how much they would want, but the junk yard is devoted to Dodge trucks.

Sorry, 50mm is as large as I go and these are for a basically stock engine. I leave the larger TB's to the other guys.
