Default which brand throttle body?

Are all throttle bodies close to the same? I'm looking at 90mm cable TBs. Should I just get a GM throttle body or are some better than others?

Gm does not have any 90mm drive by cable tb's. I have an edelbrock 90mm and I am happy with it. It one of the cheaper ones out there.

What do you love about your fast 90? Why is it better than the Edelbrock, Holley, BBK, etc? Do we have any flow numbers or anything?

A throtte body is a big hole with a butterfly. Get the Edelbrock 3869 and be done with it.
