Sam the throttle body on the ls7 is the new one that dose not have a cable going to it. So you have to use the one from last years Z06 and the intake but I am told it bolts right up. This is what I was told and also read. Just something to ckeck in to.

go to www.gmpartsdepot.com (http://www.gmpartsdepot.com), they have the LS-7 listed at $13,595, don't know what that includes, street and performance is asking $14,500 for theirs. Just for your info. I am going to do a pro-touring car in the next 2 years and want to run a LS-7 with a pro-charger.
