Default LY6 Throttle Body

Does anyone know if the LY6 throttle body can be used on a LS2 intake manifold in a C5

This would be easier if you would explain things, like what your trying to do, and why an LS series throttle body won't work for you.

Sorry should have been more clear. The LY6 throttle body is set up a little different than a LS2. They are the same size. You can buy one for about a third of the price. Hope this helps.
