I've got a question for the owners of 5.2 and 5.9 Dakotas, are your throttle bodies the same size diameter or are they different?

Basically, they are the same, the difference is in the heads, valves and maifold porting in the 360 if you have the performance heads. The 52mm TB will give you more overall power, but you may need the 21 lb injectors from 5-0-motorsports

Correct answer-- The 5.2 and 5.9L Magnum v8s use the exact same TB.
""Talk to Dan the fastman he makes them:

Dan reworks stock TBs-- yes.
"Basically, they are the same, the difference is in the heads, valves and maifold porting in the 360 if you have the performance heads. The 52mm TB will give you more overall power, but you may need the 21 lb injectors from 5-0-motorsports"
TBs same -- yes, heads valves on 5.2 and 5.9 (stock) are the same.
A 52mm may or may NOT give overall power depending on mods-- (Fastman, F&B, APS, home ported, etc.)
Messing with injectors without correct AF tuning-- is a waste of both money and time.
