LT1 Traction Control ?

Here is a question, if an LT1 car doesn't have a traction control button, is the car equipped with traction control? Or is it equipped and you just can't turn it off?

i got TCS on my LT1. The SLP reverse switch is 97 and up. Sucks.

My LS1 has no TCS, but the wiring harness is still there under the console.

Nope, TCS is a 4 channel rear and otherwise its a three channel. But that part is easy to fix, just unplug it, I just can't find the cable that goes straight from the pedal to the TB.

Just getting ABS without TCS was possible, but would require more time and money plus - converting the computer from ABS/TCS to ABS only is expensive.

3 channel vs 4 channel? Technically yes due to a reluctor ring on the ring gear.
