GM L61's from 02-05 were cable driven. I believe all newer ones are electronic.

My 06 L61 is electronic.

How are you going to bolt the L61 tb on a Ld9?

would the l61 tb would work if he was using the m62 and this adapter would it not? As long as he can find an intake mani that works with the m62 blower.

I know the L61 J-body TB, and LD9 J-body TB cables are interchangeable.

i would prefer getting an ls1 tb but if i cant find any adapter, i'll go with the l61

Yep you will need this adapter to use the l61 tb. It should work with your ld9 just fine.

You would think that, but its very hard to make by hand, You should see the one that came with my blower kit. It was junk.

My price was $175 in bulk.....

Yes, that nice transmission from stock tb size to mp62 opening size is not easy at all to make.

Hey guys, Im about to buy one of these, and Ill prob pay for the $32 shipping to get it in 2 or 3 days. But do you guys know of any Katech reps that might have a coupon code for a discount?
couldnt find any sales or discounts going on for Katech at the moment...thanks!

Send em an email. They are pretty awesome guys!
Re: M62 to L61 throttle body adapters NOW AVAILABLE!

I did. Jason Harding with Katech didnt even reply professionally lol...he just simply put "We don't have any discounts on that item.".
thats it...no "thanks for inquiring about our product" or "unfortunately at this time we cannot offer any coupons for that particular item"...thats kind of like 'piss off and stop asking for discounts'.

All I asked for was if there were any known coupon codes that I could save some money with since I want to pay for 2day shipping and maybe even advertise the adapter locally to help them get their product out a bit.

Its too bad they're the only one I can get it from...I dont want to do business with them to be honest

Not to be a dick but thats a good price for the adaptor itself. They prob make little money on them and sell only a few here and there since not everyone is throwing mp62's on there eco's. It is a niche product.
