I'm tempted to just go do it and see what happens haha

I think it might harder than you think because I'm pretty sure the ls1 tb is a electronic throttle unlike our cable driven throttle cables.

 

[JonZ71]

Don't take this as being a dick, just going to teach ya. Polar, LS based engines all had cable driven systems until hmm.... 04? all fbodies were cable driven, some gtos i believe were fbw, and everything now is fbw.

You have to reclock the throttle cable arm 90 degrees.

That's really all you have to do?

I was mistaken then because I thought I read somewhere that Ls motors has electronic throttles after like 02

what is the advantage of a ls1 tb?

 

[JonZ71]

I've known of some 03's with FBW, also the ls1 tb is bigger.
