The 102 will work on the motor and will accept a 92 mm throttle body (which is sufficient).

Good point. On some cars, you may have to clearance the water pump or run a different pump. Additionally, some have had to clearance the intake to clear the oil pressure sensor. (I have a CTS-V, which had no clearance issues so I sometimes forget about the issue.) The thread below contains considerable discussion on this subject.

That combo would be in the 440 range assuming proper valvetrain setup, good headers and exhaust, etc. Even with the LQ4... you have a stalled Auto which eats power.

Do you have the cam already? I'd step up to an EPS 226/234 112 at least in a 6L...
