Default Important Question!!!

My friend recently traded his modified 2004 Z06 for a new 2008 Coupe. He gave me his stock intake manifold and throttle body to put on my 1999 Coupe. My question is, "Are the throttle bodies the same? Should I use his or just use my stock throttle body? Is there a difference?"

He also offered me his stock cam.

Any words of wisdom from the forum? Thanks.

No the TB is not the same as your stock one.....You have a very nice friend hooking you up with it......you would be paying around 400 bucks on here for them.....I would toss the cam in as well if you can do it yourself

Personally if I were going to do a cam swap I would go bigger than an ls6 cam.
