Default Ls1 swapover ...wont go over 100km

Does anyone know why if I try to go past 100km ....the accelerator pedal pushes back at me and won't physically let me go any further? Have just had a ls1 swapover

If the pedal pushes back it's a mechanical issue. Pull the air cleaner assembly and look at the throttle body blade. Turn the throttle linkage by hand and see if the blade opens all the way. If so then it's probably a cable issue. If the blade stops before it opens all the way you need to figure out what's stopping it.

This is assuming you've already made sure the floor mat hasn't slid up under the pedal of course.

More details are needed before anyone can offer much help. So you have an LS1 conversion/swap vehicle? Is this a drive-by-wire or drive-by-cable setup? Do you have issues with pedal movement under any other sort of condition (such as WOT from a stop), or is there only an issue when you specifically reach 100km?
