Default What throttle body guys?

I’ve got a couple builds going at the same time currently, and I need some help from you guys in the know. 6 liter, .030 over 11:1, 823 heads, LS3 intake, high lift asa camshaft. My question is about the throttle body. It’s a cable driven throttle, and I’m shopping for a throttle body. Should I go 95mm? Is it worth it to go 102? Going in a Silverado for my nephew. I searched on here and found nothing...

So what size are you recommending to use? The LS3 intake is unmodded. Do either have the tps?

90/92 MM seem to be easier to tune in many applications, on a
6.0 with a stock LS3 Intake I would run a 90/92 TB more than
Enough flow for that combo, easier to run and less expensive.
I hear good things about the Warr also.
Holley has a good rep I would run their 105 on the 434"
