Default DBW stuff interchangeable?

I need to know if I can buy any LSx DBW components such as the TAC module, pedal, and harness for my 05 chevy LQ4. If not, what vehicles do I need to look at to get what I need. Let me know ASAP, thanks.

at the S&P catalog.
They list the following:
truck pedal # as 12177923.
TAC module truck 05=12588923, 03-05=12573059,
02=12574221. [Don't know why the overlap in the yr designation]
Vette 97-04 pedal=12565643
" " " TAC=12578953
I also have an 05 6.0, and it has no pedal, or TAC with it, so I'm looking, too.
I'm going to try to sort out the correct numbers.

I believe if you buy a truck throttle body, you need to run the truck pedal and TAC module and vice versa on the corvette stuff. I think the sweepers go in different ways on the two platforms.

Depends on the computer (ecm) AND operating system.

I have a pedal out of an 06 Trailblazer 5.3. For an E40 controller. NO TAC module needed.


GTO pedal=GTO O.S. and throttle body

Truck pedal=truck O.S. and Truck throttle body

This is on E40 style ECM

Well I have an 05 engine and TB. Does the PCM and all other DBW stuff have to match models?

the truck, vette and gto dbw's are somewhat interchangeable, but all have different plugs, so you'll have to rewire into a corresponding plug.

my setup is an 05 5.3 ecu, 05 5.3 TB, 97-04 vette pedal, 05 5.3 tac

I hadn't found this thread and accidently started a new one, but no replies... More searching.

I have an e40 ecu that I believe is out of an 05-06 GTO. The GTO pedals are hard to find and range from 185-265 new. I'm hoping to use a truck or corvette pedal, as they are easier to find and cheaper, plus it's going in a custom application anyway (nissan).

Is this possible, or do I need to break down and get the GTO pedal?

I'd like to know the answer to this as well.
I have an L92 Harness and want to use the pedal from the CTS-V.

I'm trying to figure this out as well. I have a truck ecu, no tac, no pedal (build in progress). I have the truck dbw throttle body for now for a truck intake and stock heads, with later plans of switching to L92 heads and an LS3 intake/LS2 TB. I was assuming the plugs were different on the TB, but they should work thew same correct?

The biggest thing I worry about though is finding a pedal that works well in a Chevelle, and which TAC will work with it and my ecu (that is if I can get away with keeping my stock truck ecu). I hope I don't have to switch to a different computer and harness. I've seen pictures of some of the pedals (I think from trucks) that are just ridiculously bulky. Is it that the TAC module needs to be the right one for the ECM, or do all 3 components need to be matched (well 4 considering the TB)?
