I’m at a crossroads deciding on an intake manifold. I rebuilt a 2008 5.7 truck motor, going in a 96 dakota. The only upgrades to the motor are a comp 268 cam and shorty headers. Using Holley terminator x max and 46re trans. For an intake im thinking of using a stock truck or the holley fabricated sheet metal intake. I have a drive by wire pedal from an 06 jeep commander with the plug and wires that I cut off a few inches from the pedal. I know I’ll lose some hp and torque with the Holley intake. Can I make this work witH the DBW pedal? Should I get a cable controlled TB? This is all new territory for me.

If you're using the truck timing cover, then you may have dictated using the truck intake already.

Mopar or No Car...
I am using a Holley single plane intake with the stock 5.7 TB which required me to modify a LS 4150 adapter. I have not gotten the car running yet so I do not know how good or bad it will work. I am using a DBW Holley Terminator X max system with a Cherokee DBW peddle.
