Hey guys,

Just wondering if anyone knows the difference between the VTII and VXII LS1 throttle body and the later VY+?

Apparently the "cam rate" is different, i am wondering which is "slower" when opening? (EG was the later model more aggressive or slower)

Cheers, Errol.

Is that you Errol vt vx and some early vy had a smaller throttle cam late vy vz large throttle cam to have a more progressive throttle feel.

I thought the late ones had fbw (electronic) throttles?

Some very late VY HSV's got the VZ motor with FBW, I don't recall seeing non HSV's with it though

They must be round somewhere, I got my conversion from a VY SS and has FBW.
Thanks for the message Errol, will give you a buzz re the adaptor

Yeah a mate of mine had a VY II Clubby, that might have been where I have seen one?

Kind of makes sense, seen an XUV with FBW, so thinking all the AWD models?
