TBSS parts fit L99?
I sold my TBSS but I have some parts here that I had bought for it:
-ported/polished TB -Powerbond UD pulley I'm thinking these will fit on the L99. Are the LS2 and L99 TB's the same diameter? Thanks!

Need to verify the offset of the ud pulley, but the crank snout is the same.
The TBSS most likely has the LS2 style TB (silver blade) and wont work with the LS3/L99 (brass blade) as the parameters of both the TPS & the acuator motor ratio are different. Look at the blade to see what the TBSS one is, but I'm 99% sure it is a LS2 style. |

If it is the stock TBSS TB then it will 100% not work. It has the truck style TB not the car style besides being smaller than the stock camaro TB.

Thanks guys. Man I think I know the name Bo White from somewhere?
Brandon do you actually see a gain from ported TB's?

I'm sure we talked on the phone one time, can't remember what about. Did you work for a shop or have problems with one?
Ported TB's a worthy mod on the 5th gen?

I worked for a speed shop until 2005 and then I did some work here and there on the side. Yes, porting the 5gen TBs are worth it- my stock G8 GXP when I tested one:

Whoa that's a sweet gain. What shop were you with, that's probably where I remember you from. Remember I used to own LS1Tech with Tony?

I was with a local shop that wasnt on the web really.
I know you and Tony(9 ball) was the owners, I sponsored for a few years under my name as an individual porting TBs and cylinder heads.

That's what it was!! Do you still port TB's? Your gain looks really strong on the dyno.
