Default Aftermarket throttle body and cruise control

I'm looking for a 95-98mm throttle body for my next build and am really wanting something that retains a hookup for the cruise cable. Even if there's a way to add it... I drive with the cruise a lot and will be driving the truck a lot.

From what I have seen most aftermarket T-bodys have a provision for cruise control..unless you have seen different? I know my current PTM 92mm and my old edelbrock 90mm both had a "nipple" to connect to..IIRC I used a oem truck connector at the end of the cable..If it does not have a nipple I am sure you could drill and tap something in there.....

Just from what I observed, the bigger you go, the fewer and fewer there are with the stud for the cruise cable... I'm mainly trying to see who has what and how they like them and if they have cruise or not.

I'll probably end up with a 95 simply because the cost jump going from 95-98 is pretty big from what I've seen. That, and it'll be pushing it to get the 98 on my intake... It's pretty much set at 95.

I've been looking into the PTM, Comtech, and NW throttle bodies. Most likely going to be going with the PTM or Comtech.
