The 90mm TB on the LS2 Monaro is incompatible with the LS1 ETC TAC module. However, this little gadget may fix it:

I've never used one but it may help some of you guys looking to run more power through you VZ CV8 Monaro which has a 78mm TB.

There is various options for the ls1 right up 2 95mm check ebay oz. But checking the oz forums they all seem to go for porting the standad TB

Iam just going to get mine ported as its the least expensive option and if i feel it need a bigger one then i go get 1 laugh

Hi Wormus,

Nice find there mate. I will be quizing Roger about that little item and where to source an LS2 throttle body - will probably port it also.

Cheers

Worth clarifying that the link Wormus has posted refers to 05/VZ ls1 ONLY. 04 and earlier are manual bodies ans a whole host of options are available.

also worth mentioning that not all of the larger throttle bodies "fit" when/if you fit a supercharger so if you think you'll go FI at a later date then check with the usual suspects before parting with any cash.

been said before but I have PWR etc TB on my LS1 which uses the standard servo motor. The nice thing about that one is it has an oval inlet so fits under the bonnet when bolted to the front of my TVS 2300.

The X-link may work well in larger NA or maybe Centr-blower applications where there is space for a 90mm TB.
