LS3 DBW Throttle Body on LS1 I’ve got an LS1 out of 2000 Camaro going in a Chevelle, which has a smooth fire wall. I don’t want a hole with a throttle cable coming out of it.
The throttle body I have is off of a 2014 SS Camaro.
What is it going to take besides intake adapter to make this thing work? I know pedal, but what about TAC and ECM?
I plan on getting a new engine harness and ECM if needed.

Make sure that your computer is ok for dbw and cable. Some were like this and some were not. The 2014TB is not going to work with your gen3 computer. A 2014 pedal is not either. Look at ls1swap and some other websites that cover which gen 3 pcm's can do both, it may be as easy as changing pcm's and swapping a few pins. OR you may be lucky and have the good one already.
The PCM is one that has the red and blue plugs. I have one if you need it. I wound up using a E38 pcm and stand alone harness. No gauges, a/c or creature comforts.

Looks like the Gen III controller I have is has the blue and red connectors and what I’m reading looks to do both cable and DBW. I know the easy answer would be a 97 vette throttle body, but they look terrible.
I’ll look for a Gen III truck throttle body, pedal and TAC module.

I used LT1 swap for a lot of info on my swap. Unfortunately, you will need to do some wiring for the pedal and dbw TB.
I also used ALLDATA for for checking out the wiring. I think it is 20 bucks for 30 days use.
