I just looked at my order, and the same new one on Amazon (Professional Products 69705) was $344. Can't say why that is...Hmmmm
Mine is a 1990 L98 also. The kit also came with both linkages for early and late L98. Earlier models have a clip on cable and the later have the lead plug on the end.
Summit has the same throttle body (69705) for $235. We all want to save money where we can.
I read that some Holley throttle body installations might have some issues with fitment, so before pulling the trigger, do your due diligence.

I just decided, despite my desire to save money, that $50 extra was worth it for a better quality, billet aluminum throttle body.
Thanks for pointing that out. I heard about that the fitment issues and looked into it, and the problems appear to be uncommon and all remediable, so I'm going to go ahead and get the Holley. I appreciate your warning though.
