converting fly-by-wire TB

is it possible to convert the fly-by-wire TB from a Vette/GTO to a cable driven TB for f-bodies. if so, what is needed? reason i ask is because i wanted to get the L76 intake package that comes with a 90mm F.B.W TB. thanks in advance.

by the way, i did use the search button...more than once.

dont think its possible to convert the tb, but you can swap out the tb for a cable driven one (ala, fast 90 or something)

Why would you want to, fly by wire is less responsive than a cable driven TB

yeah i dont think you can do it .... yet.. im sure some one will eventually make a kit for it.. but there are companies out there that sell a 90mm (and soon to sell a 100mm and 105mm) cable TB. Might just buy one and sell the L76..
