so I prefer to use a cable driven throttle body on my 2005 5.7 hemi build. I have seen people use the LS 92mm throttle bodys with an adapter. Which works for me, but I'm not sure how this work electrical wise. Am I going to be getting gm plugs and splicing them into the harness or some short adapter harness? Will this cause problems with the ecu? I plan on using the terminator x max kit from holley. Any and all help is appreciated from those of you who have used the ls throttle bodies.
 
You might call Holley and see if you need to do anything at all? The Sniper system uses the LS throttle body anyway, so surely to goodness they have all of the electrical stuff figured out already.
 
You can get the cable and pedal and throttle body from a 2003-2004 Dodge Ram. And control box. They went drive by wire in 2005. I may have the cable and pedal still in shed. I went drive by wire.
 
Holley will probably send for GM throttle body. The terminator MAX with for DBW.
 
I have a BBK TB with the Holley HP. Which I believe is the same harness as the Terminator. The TPS is a three wire plug. And the IAC is a four wire plug on that harness. Cut and solder or use Weatherpac connectors. The Holley site has a really smart guy running it, Danny C.
Very little MOPAR stuff on there.
 
You may want to look into the EFI source goldbox. They require the use of LS/cable throttle bodies.
