Default 58mm TB

I have this LT1 58mm TB for a Corvette. I bought it and tried to put it on a 93 Z28 and it didnt work out. Instead of taking it back I put it in a box and forgot about it. Can someone please Identify this for me. I cant post it for sale until I find out who makes it. There are no Identification numbers on it at all. Used for 10 miles
All I know about it is LT1/58mm/Corvette

I was thinking more in the upper $350 range since it was only mounted for a few hours and taken off.

You can buy a nice 52mm/58mm TB for $300 anywhere, and Holley makes good ones too.
Personally, I think 58mm is a little much unless youre seeing over 330hp to the wheels

You cant compare one of these to a BBK or cast model. 330 HP to the rear tires is simple.....

Holley, AS&M, BBK/Edlebrock are all fair to good companies. But for some reason, when LPE uses something it is very good. I think since it was designed by ACCELL with LPE it is a thoruough piece. The whole split BLS for LT1's are fixed by its design already. Just look at the idle circuitry, as it uses GM's design, which is beter.
Thats just my 2 cents.
