Throttle Body Interchangeability
What is the interchangeability of LS1 throttle bodies. Will say a 98 TA work on a 01 SS. Does EGR play into the picture. I have a 2001 camaro and am considering buying a used TB to get ported and polished.

Any idea why it was changed?
Does it take less gas pedal movement for the same throttle movement, or less?

If you get a truck TB you may also find the PCV and
coolant nipples are different. The PCV you can pull out
& swap (same for the throttle shafts & other fittings)
but the coolant lines are in there good; I hacked the
whole boss off, it gave me room to route the bypass
cleanly.
