I have never seen this on any lt1 engine besides mine. It looks like the throttle cable is running to it. Any help?


The first picture is the thing the second picture is where it is located on the motor.

Its the traction control motor.

 

Awsome thanks.
Will there be any side effects if I was to remove this?

well, you MIGHT lose your traction control..

 

lol, I desirved that, its been a long day. I didnt know if it was a direct unbolt without setting off any ses light or loose connections.

i would start by just unplugging it and seeing what happens. at most it well set an SES code, and your ASR light might do some funky things. but it won't hurt anything.

 

I think u need a cable from a non-traction control car as well since the one right now will be too short.

 

hey now that i think about it, does the ASR motor act as the cruise control actuator, too?

 

humm that might be something I need to look into before disconnecting it.

Dude if you take that off then your woobalator will be out of calibration and after that .......all I will say is you can kiss your muffler bearings goodbye

 

That looks the Cruise control thing, ... I forget the technical term, but there's a picture of it in the holly manual, that shows the throttle cable routing to it...but it's suppossed to be on vettes only though.... any how damn that thing is ugly I'm glad it's not on my engine.

 

If you remove the traction control servo, you will have to replace the throttle cable and cruise cables with non-TCS ones.

 

I have mine on there with my longtubes installed. No issues with that. No need to remove it.

 

Man thats the last thing you want happening, those muffler bearing are a real bitch to change.LOL

 

Also, the ASR servo comes with a factory plastic cover that is missing in your photo. Did you remove your cover? If you ever need to adjust your servo, or the throttle cable linkage PM me. My recommendation is "don't" remove the ASR servo.
