Default Dropped my Throttle Body

Hit the ground so hard it broke the inlet.

So what is a good replacement throttle body for a LS6 intake?

If it helps the LS6 intake is on a 6.0 and will possibly do a cam swap in the future.

I would just replace the throttle body you had with another one. If you are wanting to go with an aftermarket intake setup I would need to know more about the engine, drivetrain, and goals for the vehicle to recommend what to do. If you are just wanted to get it up and going again replace it with another one. Unless you are making some serious power I doubt the throttle body is holding you back, especially if you are running the stock cam and internals.
