L83 TO L86 INTAKE, THROTTLE BODY OPTIONS

[BigPac]

picked up a used l86 intake manifold for 100$ and looking into different throttle bodies, i know the acdelco 12669871 for $403 off the 6.2 is standard, but amazon has oem 12673449 for $155 CDN. I believe it needs the adapter to work. But $$ its still cheaper. Any one have any experience ?

You get what you pay for, AT BEST. Amazon has many 3rd party vendors who substitute cheap knockoffs for OEM GM parts.

I’m looking forward to doing this swap on my suburban. I ordered a ported setup from chuy454 and i believed that’s the part number TB it comes with.
