Talking Throttle bodies

I found a little water leak on the bottom coolet line on the throttle body. I was going to weld it but was wondering if anyone has replace their double throttle body with a 60mm single throttle body from a mustang and if they got any better performance from it??? I have a K&N filter system for a 60mm throttle body and would like to use it.

How are you going to adapt the mustang throttle body to the truck intake?

You would have to swap the whole manifold - upper and lower. You would also have to modify the throttle linkage to work with the mustang throttle body and intake from what I understand. It's certainly possible, although I can't say what you would gain from the swap.
