Default TB options 102mm

Currently looking for a higher quality TB for my LS7. I have a new LS2 throttle body hanging around, but I much rather use a 102/103 if I can swing it. Unfortunately, a lot of what I see clumps LS2/LS3 TB’s together, and I know the c5 pcm specifically wants an LS2 style ‘silver blade’ TB.

As much as they cost, I’d rather make sure whatever it is I buy plays nice before just dropping the cash.

tuning is not an issue.

what have you guys used on a c5 that plays well with the PCM? It’s an 02 Z, if it matters.

Nick Williams 102s use GM Gold Blade TPS, the NA versions also use the same motor as well. As far as I have researched, all other 102s have similar Chinese internals.
