TPS source

Hi guys-

I need a TPS for my truck b/c I'm tired of flipping a jimmy-rigged switch to get it into OD. I don't want to retrofit a potentiometer/V6 TPS. I want it to work/look (yes even under the hood) like it did stock. So where is the cheapest to get a "quality" TPS for a 1993? Best I've seen is still well over 200 bucks.

Thanks
Mitch

That's about what they cost. I'd do the V6 TPS myself, only a 1st gen geek would notice it's not factory.

Hey thanks,

I looked at Autozone though and it was in the 250 range. A $100 savings would be nice. I just spent $1200 on a new injection pump so I pretty much refuse to drill any holes in it. I guess I'll just bite the bullet. Are there any direst bolt-ups. I'm guessing no b/c then there would be a write up somewhere.

Thanks again.
