The stock intake opening is only 76mm, so you would be wasting money on something that will not give you much gains. Just save for a 90mm intake setup.

^^In addition to that, a spacer is needed to mount an 85mm TB to a stock intake. This spacer will require you to lengthen the TB cable. Not worth the trouble. You'll have the same gains with a P&P stock TB.

You already have the LS6 intake, so a ported stock TB will be the best bang for the buck. Until you have heads/cam, anything else is a waste of $$.

We have ported stock ones if needed & several others on here do a good job. In the LS parts FS there is one FS ceap.
