Believe they go for $80. You'll need to call to order.

Nobody sells a "conversion" package, per se. If you wanted to go to a FAST 90 ($735), GM LS2 90mm TB/conversion harness/TAC module ($510), fuel rails ($200), fuel rail connections ($180), aftermarket fuel pressure regulator ($125), pulley relocation bracket ($85), f-body water pump (($200 brand new) can also do like Speartech did - using a f-body pump will require spacers to make the wp line up with other pullies), I think that is it. You can save a little money going to a LS6 intake or maybe with a Vicjr. You may also figure a way to use stock fuel rail. For '04 and above it will be a little easier due to a returnless fuel system. Prices will vary slightly.

On a cable-actuated TB you don't have to do the water-pump-outlet mod, all you have to do is cut the outlet down to about 3/4" tall and put a 45deg elbow in to clear the TB.

I own one of the Speartech brackets and they are VERY well made.....I bought mine quite a while ago when I did this swap.

John, in photos 1,2,4 &5 it appears that the belt as it passes from tensioner to idler is running a little further rearward than where it is on the water pump. Is this an optical illusion or is my eye sight really getting that bad? Nice looking job.
