Default 5.3L TB same as LS1 TB?

Am going to be doing some 'things' over the weekend to my car and would like to add a ported TB with what I am doing.

A friend has a TB available from a 5.3 and says that it appears the same as the one on his 2001 TA but isnt sure.

Is it the same thing?

It definitly LOOKS the same. Doesn't FEEL the same (SOTP)!
Look at the difference in the "arm" that opens the butterfly. It's smaller.
