Default What is the throttle body in the Holden LS1's?

Do you guys have throttle by wire in the Comodore and Monaro? or is the the traditional linkage/cam assortment?

Any body have any engine pics they can show me?

Thanks,

Bret

Exactly the same as Fbody now. All previous versions had a faster ratio cam !

I have personally seen a Monaro with a throttle body this is quite different than the traditional F-body unit. I took some pictures....I'll post them tomorrow. It is red anodized billet aluminum, and has "HSV" ball milled on the top.

I was told (by Lachlan, ChipTorque) that the red GTS throttle body is one and the same as the 84mm STARR throttle body.

HSV GTS one E$PEN$IVE
STARR one $600 (Aussie Pesos)

starr one is 600 bux plus the cost of another throttle body

The C4B TB is 78mm ? I dont get how they can be the same (performance maybe, price not, benefit over a ported TB both not so far)

The TB are definitely the same as the US cars...I have exchanged and fitted US TBs to our cars. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
