Default trying to find a dbc tbi at a napa/ autozone

anyone else have trouble finding a dbc throttle body at a parts store? Any store i go to napa/autozone/oreilly etc and say im looking for a 99-02 throttle body for a chevy 1500/2500 they still try to give me an electronic drive by wire one. Any ideas? I just need a drive by cable one and the only ones they show is a electronic controlled one. Thanks

I couldn't find one where they list a AC delco part number, it seems they do no carry the delco cable TB's there.

Even though they say they fit, they are not cable TB's. It even shows the same picture for the 8.1 as it does for the 4.8-6.0 engines.

I'd find a used one on ebay or pay up the *** for a dealer part.

ya they kept trying to tell me theirs will fit, even though i can clearly see on their picture that it is a electronic one.

good idea, but they are the same way. they show all electronic throttle bodies for the 99-02 years. but yes i already tried purchasing a ls1 dbc tb that they had. it fit, but the throttle hookup was different so when i started the truck the butterfly would be a little open at idle and the truck would idle at 2500. the ls1 throttle body must have a longer bracket that the cable hooks into. any other online site ideas? rock auto has actually been the best insight.
