Ive got a project forming.
Late 60's muscle car, either Camaro or Chevelle. (Looking at a Pro Touring SBC Camaro at present)
I want to drop an LSX454 & T56 into it with carb intake.

I can of course find loads of LS1 4150 intakes with TPS and IAC. But Im after ideally a 4150 with DBW to suit the 58x and E38 driven 454lsx.
I guess I could go with a 24-58 converter, but Id prefer the e38.

Does anyone know of a ETC 4150 throttle body or similar suitable?

Thanks

The highly edited photo attached is from a build that I helped out with, where the gentleman just wanted the look of a carburetor on a HotRod.

It's a Gen IV, with an OEM TB mounted in down draft position on a GMPP intake via a custom adapter plate. An old school carburetor style air cleaner seals to the TB, and the MAF (LS2 style) is hidden inside the air cleaner, directly in contact with the TB.

My apologies for the edited photo - its a customers car that did the show circuit, and I don't have his authorization to post photos and / or technical information. Never bite the hand that feeds you !

Hopefully Richard, this is at least some food for thought for you.
