Yup! I bought a MAP sensor extension harness to plug into my map sensor so that I didn't have to unwrap mine from the harness. I like to keep everything OEM

if you open the loom up the map sensor and almost every wire has a lot of slack that you can pull it out to make it longer then just wrap it back up. thats what i did

Id say you did. I can get a bare one from GM for $166. Thats after a 30% discount. Gmpartdirect is 6 bucks cheaper. Im tired of screwing with buying used parts. My whole damn build is used...lol. I think Im going to do that and drop the cash on a trick flow fuel rail kit. Just looks a little nicer, IMO.

90mm tb's are going for next to nothing, from what I hear. Friend of a friend is actually throwing them away.

I'd figure an aftermarket CAI would probably work fine. Or try to adapt a TBSS intake tube.

I got another PM over there saying he wanted 350 shipped for a complete intake with TB... Post up a thread over there like I did and haggle with them.

There is a cast edelbrock 90mm TB that you can buy without tps or iac for 260ish its part number is 38640. This is for us old school cable throttle guys.

Im with you, I want it to look totally stock, is the extension harness a GM part? If so can you get a PN for it?

I appreciate it, man. I'll post one up and see what happens. Mail transactions stress me out though. I got burned off here last year. Everything else I've bought off here and tech have been face to face.
