Will the throttle body off of a 2002 Z06 bolt up to a LS1 intake manifold?

If I remember correctly, they changed the intake in 2001. They are the same LS1 and LS6 in 01. Will the Z06 TB fit an earlier LS1 intake? I don't honestly know. If I were a guessing man I'd say "yes, it would physically fit". But, I would go on to say that you probably would not be able to take advantage of the swap without changing manifold and cam. Which is what Chevy did in 01.
The size of LS1 and LS6 throttle bodies are the same. There would be no performance advantage in installing the 01-04 LS6 TB on a 98 LS1.
There would be an advantage in using the LS6 intake manifold. It's worth about 10-hp when installed on an LS1.
