Subject: 99 3.9L TB SWAP V6 to V8
IP: Logged

Message:
The swap went as planned. Took a couple of days to remove the air steps and other material that blockes the openings for better flow. I'm very surprized at the additional power. Thanks everyone for all the information provided for this and the other mods. So far everything is working better than I expected. I would like to know about the markings on the butterflies. I know someone posted them but can't find. For example what does 11 equate to in the TB size (64mm)? I have seen 11 and 12 etc ...are there others? Also, is there a difference between a 5.2L TB and a 5.2L TB off a R/T, also does the year also upgrade the size and perofrmance of the TB?

Thanks alot, Brad

I would say it is the best modification I have done so far to the dak. It just took some time taking off the air horns and steps. I just cleaned out the bores with an 80 grit sandpaper on the drimmel. Work very well.
