don't know if this is an LS1 thing or not. and i'm pretty sure this isn't a demand for the Bump-Stop mod.

but when i press my peddle, the throttle body only opens like half or 2/3 of the way? it feels like there is a lot of slack in it too...is it possible it's been stretched? I don't know if it's the original one or not. Thanks in advance!

hey all! i know a lot of you couldn't answer this, but i took my car to the local LS1 pro-shop and they fixed it really quick by adjusting a little clasp on the throttle cable. It's easy to see, i'd shoot pix but it's freakin cold out. Just follow the cable from the TB toward the cruise control and you'll encounter a little square in the line. Pop it open, adjust and BOOM: now it actually opens the TB all the way!!!
