ls3 heads, intake and injectors on forged 370 going into a 2001 c5 corvette question
I am planning to install a forged 370 short block in my 2001 c5 corvette. The short block has the 24x reluctor so thats not a problem. I have a set of ls3 heads I want to use along with the ls3 intake and fuel rails and injectors. I need to know what options I have for a throttle body. It will have to be a drive by wire for it to work on my vette. I also need to know what else will be needed to make this stuff work on my vette. I know I will need the adapter harnesses to make the ls3 injectors work. What about the map sensor or any thing else thats different? I just want to make sure I have every thing to make it work when I tear the car down for the swap to make it go smooth.

I believe any 90mm tb that is drive by wire should work. ls2 or ls3. I know the ls2 requires a harness and I read something about the ls3 tb opens backwards compared to a ls1/2. I dont know that to be true but it seems like I read something about it.
Just throwing it out there but I have 90mm Nos plate kit for sale if you are interested. The kit is brand and new still in the packaging. PM me if you are interested. CHEAP!

We offer 2 ways to make this work. You can use the GM LS2 4 bolt TB with the wiring harness adapter, OR you can use one of our Nick Williams DBW throttle bodies and have no need for the wiring harness adapter since it uses the same 2 connector motor on it.
The GM TB with harness is $450
The NW TB that is plug and play is $509.00
IF you decide to switch to the 102 FAST, the 102mm TB is the same price at 509.00
I have either way on hand and ready to go!
