In this thread there a quite a few guys that have expressed interest in wanting a TB converter can any of the sponsors give us a good price on the TB converters. Dacco sells them for mid 200s can this price be beat if say 10 orders at atleast were filled?
This is thread that started it I count 10 on the last couple of pages that said they would want including myself. Thanks.

Yea, I think Dacco sells them for about $175 (or whatever AP said), but GM parts direct has a core charge. If Im not mistaken, the dacco's are sold outright. :judge:

cost on a tb converter from gm is like 187. the cheapest i can get it is 10% over cost so it looks like the only real bet is to get a gm dealer to step up and do it for everybody

XLR8NSS PMed me back and said that he is going to try and work somethin gout with SDPC and will get back to us early next week. He wants one too and will get in on the deal so just hold off a couple of days if you are thinking about buying one soon we may jsut be able to get a decent price on them especially if we can get 20 or so orders for them. This thread has only been up for like a day and already there are 10+ orders easily in this thread. There will be more to jump on this Im sure if we can really get something going and a price on them for certain number of orders filled.

TravisH
12-23-2005, 06:15 PM
well, I talkedto my guy at the dealership and the best they can do is $260 a piece, which it $100 off of the list price.
I think GM parts direct will be everyones best bet at $187.06....

Hey guys!! Sorry I have not been on the truck board alot in the past month or so. We don't normaly do GP's but we will give you the best price I can!! Are you guys wanting them for the 5.3 or the 4.2. Just let me know this and I will find you the best price I can get!! If someone will shoot me a pm with the engine size that would be great!!
THANKS!!

12-28-2005, 06:20 PM
4.2 I believe
PEDRO
12-28-2005, 06:20 PM
i think they r gona go behind the 6.0 5.3 4.8 engines also ^^^^^^^ u might wanna be a tad bit under 200 cause the other guy is sellin them for that
EDIT:
dont pay attention to my comment i dont know what i am talkin bout
XLR8NSS
12-28-2005, 06:23 PM
It's either of these part numbers Kris or maybe a combination of the two. The 04 evidently stalls a little higher than the 05 model so I'm sure some guys will want different ones. :)
