Default LS2 Throttle Body

I'm looking for a good (relatively cheap) throttle body to put on my new LS1 96mm Typhoon Intake. And yes it accepts an LS2 throttle body it has 4 bolt holes not 3 like the LS1's. I've been searching around and I'm seeing some TB's for about 200-250 like the Godspeed 92mm TB. I'm just afraid that I wont get good sealing by using one of these cheaper ones. Does anybody have a good suggest on a good budget throttle body that I could potentially bore out to 101mm?

Also The TB needs to be cable driven also, I cant use drive by wire because its an LS1 motor.

Any throttle body that fits is good enough.
However I hope you didn't pay much for that inlet manifold!

I wasn't "hating" on your manifold, I've just never seen it make anymore power than a factory LS6 that's been ported.
Heck you only pick up 15rwhp with a FAST 90.
