Is the 4.7L stock TB the same as the 3.7L stock TB?

I just got an email back from The Fastman, and he said they are completely different sizes........the reason I want a stock one back is because after I installed the reworked one I saw a 3-4 mpg drop. So I want to put the stock one back on.

I'd offer to trade you but mine's the 4.7l, and judging by some of the things dealers have told me I'd tend to trust the fastman over the dealer regarding the sizes being the same or not.[&:]
