I was wondering if anyone knew where on the throttlebody the part number is located. On the side closes to the windshield there is a number but it doesn't match up with Ford's part numbers. Maybe these are wrong but I am showing the following part numbers:
regular 2.5 MTX throttlebody is F6RZ9E926BC
SVT throttlebody is F7RZ9E926AA

Thanks for the help,

CJ
 
Exactly, that's what I am trying to find out. Apparently nobody knows where the part number is so I will rephrase my question.
Is there, aside from the blue SVT sticker, a way to visually differentiate the two different TBs?

Thanks all,
CJ
 
Aren't the brackets different? Maybe you can compare the two and see which one you have?

well I see two things right away between those two pics ...

the svt tb has that unused top on the top

als the SE tb has a straight flat top where as the svt one is round.

also the svt tb has the curved plastic peice the throttle cable goes into where as the se one with a manual clips on and has a linkage to open the tb.
 
Thanks for the help guys. The reason I didn't measure it was I was under the impression that the difference in the size was only evident on the inside of the TB and not the outside and I didn't feel like taking it apart. Hey hotdimmes, is the regular TB you showed an MTX?

yes it is a mtx, I can tell by the tb ...
 
the linkage turns in a different direction,and the outsides are noticeably smaller. a non svt tb will fit inside a svt tb.

Catalog part numbers seldom if ever match up to the numbers embossed on the part. Ford has cross references charts to help identify the "engineering" number on the part with the catalog number.
 
Isn't there a part number stamped on the back of the tb?

You could always loosen the intake hose, take it off and measure it that way.:shrug:
 
the number is engraved behind the hookup for the throttle cable on this one in my hand and it isnt the same numbers as any of those other ones mentioned
