    EDITED: first off thanks to fieroguru, DavidGXP, and GXP25 for their research in this area the FSM GXP25 provided was the last unknown for this swap turns out my alldata Ls4 wiring diagram was wrong, so i deleted it out of the original post please disregard quotes of the orginal in posts mentioned below..


    Courtesy of GXP25
    **This is a general guide ALWAYS verify your year TB pinouts first**


    PINOUTS ARE AS FOLLOWS


    LS2 GTO TB . LS4 TB
    PIN A ---- PIN F
    PIN B ---- PIN E
    PIN C ---- PIN H
    PIN D ---- PIN A
    PIN E ---- PIN B
    PIN F ---- PIN D



    NOT USED PIN G&C ON THE LS4 HARNESS


    **If you have idle surge or hanging idle see below







    http://youtu.be/WI-RuRQ1nDc




    PARTS LIST:


    TB adapter here 55 USD http://www.alpermotorsports.com/inde..._detail&p=1688


    Pigtail: LS2 Throttle Body Pigtail Brand New LS2 TB Pigtail | eBay


    Throttle body: Ebay got mine for 140 shipped


    all bolts are m6 x 1.0 you will need 4 for the TB and 3 are included with the TB adapter to the intake manifold


    Thickness of LS2 TB for bolt length



    Adapter





    For issues with idle like i eventually had you will need to adjust 2 tables in the pcm


    ETC scaler and Base idle airflow need to be adjusted to get you idling right.
    here are the values i used with good sucess results may vary.

    kind of a unfair question the LS1 intake is worth 15hp alone its also ported and instead of a 75mm TB theres a 90 now so needless to say theres more involved then just the TB here. When i get it on this weekend ill update

    Be flat out honest I'm a ford guy at heart and the Prix grew on me!!! What's the difference between flat bottom and curved? Clearance issues? Flow issues?

    With an LS3 TB I lose the vacuum fitting that's on the LS4 TB. Where does it get moved to?

    I Had to drill and tap my TB adapter to fit a new fitting for the brake booster vaccum line. I used a 1/4 NPT with 1/2 dia. barded end.
