08'+ 4.7 Throttle Body swap to larger Hemi Throttle Body?

JohnHenry · Dec 30, 2012

Hello, got another question as title reads...

After viewing pictures of Hemi intakes and throttle bodies, it looks similar to what I see under the hood of my 08' 4.7(opening measures at 3 inches in diameter). How alike are the hook ups/connections on a Hemi throttle body and a 4.7 Magnum? Can I remove the throttle body I have currently and convert to a Hemi after-market or regular Hemi throttle body? I normally would port and polish my stock one but it appears to be made of plastic, same as intake manifold.

I appreciate the help guys, sorry for all the new threads lately. I did look for subject matter first and didn't see one posted...

Okay so far checking other sites, Ebay has this throttle body listing title leading me to believe I'd be safe swapping over:
OEM Throttle Body 53032801AC Chrysler Mopar Hemi Dodge Ram 3.7L 4.7L 5.7L

Still looking for info from someone who knows...

*Edit: The plastic tb is portable but not much to gain. Rather swap to one from Moe's if possible.

The 4.7 and 5.7 use a different TB, so unfortunately the hemi TB will not work on your truck. We have started R&D on the 4.7 TB's, but I dont have an expected release date yet.

Yeah, the 4.7 TB's aren't electric like the Hemi TB's, and they're a little larger too.

I think they are electric. Just a little smaller diameter than Hemis--3 inches even on my 4.7 TB. When selecting a product from a vendor, it has option for 2008 4.7 -with electronic throttle only.

Looking at F&B's site, they dont do any electric ones. However I did find one of their distributers offering the 2000-2007 throttle bodys for $395, any size ya want.
