Default DBW 8.1L Throttle Body the same as the LSx truck TB?

As the title said i felt like a impulse buy on Ebay.

Its GM P/N: 1257080

Granted i just said f-it and bought as the images look identical to my TB of course i know better than to trust images and visual perception.

So im just asking if GM used the same TB on the 8.1L as they did on my 6.0L

Thanks,
Mike

Actually i ended up answering my own question, in SS_bnoon_SS's thread about polishing the DBW TB's you can make out the part number on one of his castings, and it reads the 1257080 which is the same as the TB i just bought (atleast what was said in the description) so i think im good...

Now i cant wait to get that thing to meet my dremel and alumnium polish

Yup, that's the right one. Damn good price too! My cores cost me $50 plus shipping...
