[updated:LAST EDITED ON 28-Nov-02 AT 08:15 AM (EST)]Which 5.0 throttle body will work on the 4.9 engines??

Are there modifications to be done to make them fit??
Thanks in advance for the replies....

Which throttle body

probably any t/b from a 87-96 truck will work, its bolt on to a point....the intake holes are larger than those of the stock 4.9 intake, so you will have to expand them and/or righ and adapter/spacer.
