Default ITB's W/Functional DBW

Anybody know of a working C5 ITB setup with the factory DBW conversion?

Did internets and CF search but seems to be no fully functional street use LS ITB setup that is "yet" fully adapted running that I could find.
Lots of partial data here and outside material

AFAIK, no one with a functional setup.

Wow, I know not common, but I didn't know there were none. Not even the Harrop? https://www.harrop.com.au/shop/hurricane-manifold-cable

There’s no reason it “couldn’t” but all the background points to race spec only style ITB’s run by cable
But to run a cable on a C5 w ITB’s would mean piggy backing the C5 ECU or finding some method of using the ECU signal to run a much stronger DBW throttle actuator

Currently I’m working on a separate long term project on a 4 cyl. W/ITB’s run by a Link ECU but the engine originally ran a cable throttle

OK, good but this video was in opening info.

I'm focusing on IF someone has ITB's installed and running in a C5/LS1 platform and if the stock servo is stout enough to articulate 8 individual linkages and return mechanisms. Or; how they calibrated the DBW throttle to ITB linkage action
Allowing others to share that knowledge hopefully building C5 ITB induction basis
Thanks for sharing
