Default Throttle body

K so AODE has given everyone information about the "$5 70 mm mass air flow housing" so now who knows a good cheap junk yard part for a throttle body?

5.0 Explorers have a 65mm throttle body, but its not a direct bolt-on I dont think.
Are you looking to put one on your Notch, or just wondering what will work?

just to confirm what 94blk5.0 is saying, an explorer 65mm throttle body is NOT a direct bolt on, it requires modification.

I have the Explorer TB on my car, to make it work I had to swap out the linkage arm from my stock TB (a little careful grinding and drift punch work) wasn't too difficult to do.
