TPI 5.0/5.7 throttlebody

I was wondering if a throttlebody off a 5.7 will work on a 5.0 without any issues..

Yes, a 5.0 and 5.7 had a 48mm Throttle Body, you can also go with an aftermarket 52mm or 58mm BBK, Holly ect. if needed.

Just make sure that the throttle bracket is the same between the TB's. I believe they changed a bit ~90.
