Might be okay. They're cast like stock throttle bodies though,not billet like F&B.

Good find, I never knew BBK made a TB for Dakotas. Is billet instead of 356 aluminum cast really worth paying an extra $150 for? Performance wise no. Just depends if you want to pay more for a billet/chrome look to your engine.

Hey, there's more to the design than some billet vs. cast thing. Why not take a F&B for a test??? There's no risk. Buy one. You try it, don't like it, send it back for a full refund. I would send you a loaner to try, but all of the loaner/testers that were sent out to appease the skeptical have been purchased.
No smoke & mirrors-- I can talk to Bruce at F&B at cutting corners-- not offering a nice finish piece, maybe cut out the new fully illustrated installation instructions, use cheaper mounting hardware-- But it isn't going to happen.
F&B is a thouroughly tested product on Dodge Trucks, by a Dodge Truck enthusiast.

Before adding the turbo system I proved the differences in TBs at the track. I've said it many times before - there's a big difference between throttle bodies and the F&B is the top dog! When I open my hood to show off the turbo setup people always notice and comment on my 72mm F&B TB. Not only does it work great but it looks awesome!
While it's true that this is a shameless plug for F&B - people always want to know about what works and what doesn't..... I just thought I'd share.
You can't beat a money back guarantee.

I think truckperformance screwed up and put the BBK 70mm TB for a Mustang under the Dakota 4.7 for some reason. I checked BBK's website and they don't have one listed, unless they just came out with a 70mm TB for a Dakota very recently?? It would be nice to have another option out there for only $250.
