pretty sure the intakes are the same for all three 4.8/5.3/6.0 But i think the 6.0 has a larger 80mm throttle body

Has the 6.0 always used the 80mm TB?

I believe so. Should I find an 80mm cable TB to use versus my 5.3's TB??? Also, depending on the year the 6.0 intake has the EGR tube hold blocked off. Just a minor difference.

I have been totally unsuccessful finding a cable operated thottle body with an 80mm throttle blade. I've even had one guy that ports & polishes them that there is no difference. Right now I'm using my 5.3 throttle body on the 6.0, and it seems to be working ok.
