Default Drive by wire pedal travel distance

I've got an 02 LQ9 out of an Escalade with drive by wire. The drive by wire system works fine, but the pedal travel is very short. The throttle body is wide open at about 1/2 pedal depression. This could be a problem since I'm going to have to shorten the pedal lever to install in my vette.
I've tried 2 pedals with the same result.
Is there anyway to change this?

You are using a 2000-2005 truck pedal and a 2002 G van only module. I am not sure but I would think that they need to match so the calibration will be the same.

Truck pedal 15177923 matches up to TAC module 12574221.

G van module you are using matches up to L18 big block, the LQ4 that year was cable driven.

Thanks. I have no idea why I was sent a van TAC module with the LQ9 engine.

Just need to match your components to the throttle body and you'll be good to go.

(Sorry, when I asked my original question, I should have asked: "Are you using the Escalade throttle body and are the TAC and Pedal matched to the same application?"

I'm using the 02 escalade TB, pedal, TPS, etc. But for some reason I was sent a non-compatible van TAC module from the salvage yard.
I saw the escalade TAC (12574221) cross referenced to some vans so I was hoping my TAC would work on the Escalade setup. Looks like I'm ordering a new one.
