Welcome. You can't go wrong with either one, but try to snag a later model year. 01 or 02 will get you some updated pieces( LS6 intake,slave cyl.,etc.)

Like already said you can't go wrong with either, they all perform about the same. It's all about looks and what you like best, I vote for the T/A, obviously.
