I have this throttle body but I am not using it right now because i am waiting to buy my lsx intake to use for a while to see how it performs. It comes with a 1/2" plate to go on the intake, so the throttle blade can open up fully. If it did not have the plate on a ls1 or ls6 intake it will not open up fully.

That TB has been around a while. Doesn't show much, if any gain over a ported stocker.
