Cable Throttle Body Plans are to swap a new LS2 into my 88 Monte Carlo and I am keeping the throttle cable...not drive by wire. What throttle body options do I have to bolt to the LS2 intake to make the throttle cable driven again? I know the TB on the LS2 has 4 bolts and is 90mm but I really dont know my options.
Thanks

I think this http://www.sdpc2000.com/catalog/2777...ottle-Body.htm is what I want.
Want an LS2 crate engine to go in a non LS2 car to run a cable throttle - this replaces the one on the LS2 (I hope I do not sound to dumb here!!)

As 77ZETA said, the FAST throttle body works as well as the Nick Williams 90mm model. From what I heard from Nick, the throttle body bolts up without using the top bolt. It still lines up perfectly though.

he is just stating the truth for the most part. the quality on the FAST tb is substandard for the price, alot of ppl have had various issues with them. id look at the NW one.

I had to use FOUR throttle return springs so may car won't "cruise" at 60 mph when i take my foot off the gas. And i have to tap the throttle when i come to a stop sometimes cause theres too much play between the throttle botty cam thingy and the TPS sensor.
I think I'm gonna get the Nick Williams TB...would I see a power increase with one of these over the stock LS2 TB? They are both 4 bolt 90 mm (correct??) but does the Nick William one flow better?

Does the ECU have to have the flybywire part of the programme turned off by the pcm tuner?
Think I might get an LS6 with the camaro Tb as before and 85mm maf for next conversion after all - well this is what I am think right now!

I don't mean to hijack this thread, but I'm thinking about swapping a crate LS2 into my '99 F-body. Is the throttle body the only issue I need to worry about? Can I use my stock ECU (maybe reflashed for fuel curve, etc.)?
