Default Ls2 throttle body on Ls6 mani

Aloha gang,
Other than the wiring adaptor harness, what else would I need to do to get the ls2 tbody to bolt on to an ls6 Mani with the 4 bolt 90mm snout?

The LS2 throttlebody does not have coolant lines (for preheating) so if your existing throttlebody does not you wiil need to simply bypass the throttlebody connecting the input/output coolant lines. And you may need to run the pcv hoses differently. For example, on my CTS-V, I had to add an air input on the intake upstream of the throttlebody since the LS2 throttlebody did not have one like the LS6 throttlebody I was replacing.

Send a stupid amount of money to TPIS to have it converted to a 90mm 4 bolt snout. Then it should bolt up fine.

Otherwise, it won't work.
