RichS, Do you have any photos that show how you did it? As I understand it, you used the Lt1 Z28 throttle cable and the Z28 TV cable?

It's a function of the CCM and ABS computer itself I believe.
But, if you get rid of the cable itself then the system can't retard throtte but it could still retard spark and fuel.
I'm redoing the complete brake system on my car so I got rid of everything related to ASR or ABS including the ABS sensors themselves, but my car is not a daily driver and never sees rain, not sure if I would do it on a daily driver or not.

I didn't know the CCM and the ABS could control the spark and fuel through the PCM? I wonder if that is one of the hard coded things that cannot be altered by tunerpro. I know there is a place to select it on or off.

Yep!
No way to turn that off through the PCM itself that I have seen. I think Tunercat has a traction control toggle but I think that only applies to Fbodies - I don't think it does jack on a Vette

Sorry to take so long getting back with the part no. but here it is. GM 12550676. As someone already said, Its from a F body.
As far as hooking back up the TV cable, can anyone say how the 85-91 hook up? If it is directly to the TB you may be able to use one from that era.
Also, You will loose cruise control when eliminating the ASR
