Where can I get a spare TBI?

I want to attempt the Ultimate TBI mods
But I would prefer to do so on a spare unit.

A) So I can still drive if I dont get ti done right away
B) (More likely) in case I totally hose it up.

Where might I find a good deal on such a beast?
More importantly, what is a fair price to pay?
I'm seeing em for under $100, I can't see paying more
than maybe $25-40 for a used one.

Maybe I should hike out to UWrenchIt ?

the tbi that coomes on our cars was used on most chevy trucks of the same years. i used one off of an 89 camaro the only difference i found in the 89 and 92 was the pigtail on the TPS i had to wire the pigtail which i bought at the local autozone goodluck

Yes, apparently most GM TBIs are identical except for that
one sensor's pigtail shape. (Round vs flat)

I'll post messages in a few WTB sections
but if anyone has one, please let me know.

5.0 and 5.7 V8, as well as 4.3 V6 (4.3? hmmm...I know its 4-something) all used the same TBI. I've heard 'em going for as little as $15 from a junkyard, guess it all depends on where you are. But I'd say certainly less than 50...
