Soler Performance C8 Throttle Body Install & MORE.
Hands on installation.
Note: Matt went above and beyond what is required for only the TB swap BUT it is still a clean/easier install w/ useful info for anyone looking to do other things beyond the TB as well (generally speaking; valuable overall removal/installation info to have on the C8).
Hope you enjoy the video.
Cheers!

It is much easier to remove the intake manifold with the throttle body still attached to it. You won't need to remove anything in/thru the trunk either, 15 minute job this way.

Wow. This is good to know. I want to get intake manifold ported and do throttle body at same time so this will save lots of work.
