Default Fly By Wire Conversion Question

Some of you may know I am converting my 70 to LS power over the winter. I just bought a box of corvette parts and it has a C5 throttle body in the box. My question is, does anyone know if the 02 Camaro brain will work with the C5 throttle body if I can come up with a pedal assembly that will drive the throttle body. Would be just another cool feature to add to the LS swap if possible.

Thanks for any help you can give.

It was mentioned once on this forum and I just saw it on HorsePower TV.

GM makes an LSx conversion harness. It includes a harness with LSx sensors, a brain for the engine, and a fly by wire gas pedal. It is designed for conversions such as you describe.

It could be the answer to all your questions
