Honed Throttle Body for 5.9L
Received my honed throttle body for the 5.9L Magnum engine Friday. Looks REAL nice. I suspect he either paints them or somehow polishes them somewhat after getting done with the honing. They look REAL good. I plan on doing a writeup and video for the install (yes it is probably really simple in the grand scheme of things, but this is how I roll ) Have a look for yourself:

Before I put the new throttle body on, I gasket matched the throttle body to make sure that it did not stick past the actual throttle body which would negate any gains the massaged throttle body would produce.
What the original throttle body looks like (on right). I need to take care of the breather valve side to keep this from happening again. I just got the new throttle body installed, love the tune-up power! Engine runs smooth as butter. I just got back from Orielly's, checked the vehicle codes and there was none So this throttle body will not throw a code, and if you follow instructions you will be golden on getting the computer to recognize the new throttle body.
