Subject: V8 TB!!!!???
IP: Logged

Message:
I found a Holly V8 throttle body at my local U pull a part savage yard. It is on what I believe to be a 5.2 litre in a 1994 Jeep grand cherokee. It appears to be the same type TB that is on my 3.9 V6 but stamped V8 instead of V6. Does this sound like it will work? All connectors look the same.

If your truck is a '94-95 it will work.. If your truck is a '95 and up.. No dice.

92-93 had dual fuel rail design, different linkages.

94-95 had different linkages than the 92-93 (and 96 and newer)-- Plus idle ports inside the throttle bores-- plus OBD-I

96 and new have idle port in the back of the TB, plus OBD-II, plus different linkages once again.

Sure... I've got 3 left (just sold one)... Runs $90 + shipping ($101 shipped USPS).

I throw in a new Mopar TB gasket with it-- they are all cleaned up, ready to go. Just swap on your sensors.
