What is an "LS6/3"?? The LS6 and LS3 are very different engines.
The LS6 uses a 78mm 3 bolt DBW TB, while the LS3 uses a 90mm 4 bolt DBW TB

What color blade? The 90mm tb’s are commonly identified by the blade.
P/n difference could be as simple as a different vendor that didn’t make as many, thus no/low info.

OEM needs to have a serial number and a sign on it, this parts has nothing standing on it. Copy parts from China look like that.

"OEM needs to have a serial number and a sign on it,".
That number should be the part number in the post I made.
Mine is a genuine GM take off. I bought it off E bag.
It works with the Holley Terminator X MAx.

I bought such a TB in the past, looks the same, but the spring does not bring back the blade closed. This is for me really unsafe if there is a fault on it or wiring.
