    Just wondering, what are the differences between the v6 and the v8 TB? Are the TPS and IAC plugs the same? Are the bolts the same? Is there an o-ring or gasket with the v8 TB? Will the v6 intake pipe fit directly onto the v8 TB or would i need to get different sized pipe? Cheers guys

    Ecotec throttle body is different to the V8 throttle body. V8 throttle body only works with the older V6.
