Sorry to burst your bubble, a Gen3 Vortec is a Steel LS1 Block minus All Aluminum. The Vortec Heads from a Gen 3 will not work on Gen2 and Vortec Engines of 96 - 98 Trucks. Completely Different.

Throttle By Wire TBs were used on Corvettes from 97 - 04. 98 - 2002 Camaro Z28/SS and Pontiac Formula/TA/WS6/Firehawk all used Throttle By Cable. I do know that Trucks 99 - 02 used throttle by Cable as well, instead of Wire. For the computer all you have to do is find someone with LS1 Edit and reprogram the computer or buy a Granatelli MS Diablo Programmer and e-mail them what you need programmed out, then GMS will send you a custom flash, so you can do that. If I could afford an LS1, I would throw one in my truck especially with the BW T56 or Zexel T56 and be in HP heaven.
