Message: I was down to my local dealer last week inquiring on the price of a V8 Throttle Body. I know the guy behind the parts counter and he said that there is no difference between them. I asked him if he was sure and he said yes.
From what I have read on these forums he must be wrong.
I guess I just want to make sure. I have a 99 Dakota. Are they the same?
Message: He is wrong. There IS a difference between the two throttle bodies. The bores on the V8 TB are much bigger than they are on a V6 TB. You can bolt the V8 TB on without any problems. Only thing you'll need to do is get a V8 throttle cable.
