Jim, the throttle body will allow the air in while a computer figures the amount of fuel to add. The figuring part is where there are a few options avalable but the air must be measured or calculated some way. Thats where a variety of sensors come in, but it's worth it, I'm real impressed with my LT1. I never came accross carbed SBC's that ran like this when I had my '69 bird.
