I have a 1988 IROC-Z camaro that came with the Borg Warner package when i bought it it had a fully functional ram air induction system(hood,intake, the works) but my question is when i bought it it had a Holly performance aftermarket throttle body and I immediately noticed the gas pedal to the car was stiff to get going, it was fine after initially engaged but rather annoying even till now. Would swapping the Throttle body to an original factory throttle body make the car's gas pedal softer or is the coil or spring the problem? I really have no idea, maybe someone has had similar problems or have more experience with that sort of thing just trying to get some feedback before I decide what to do. Thanks.

 

Welcome aboard thirdgen.org.

I'm not familiar with that throttle body, but had a similar condition on one of my FWD cars. The set screw wasn't set properly, allowing the throttle blades to close too far. Just opened it slightly, didn't affect anything else, but eliminated that first-movement stiffness.

 

Oh I found out what the problem was the Holley throttle body's spring was too tight I went back to stock for now until I can either tweek the holley or sell it on craigs list and get me a BBK or Edelbrock

 

My BBK is exactly the same ; very stiff at start
