what are the options for drive by cable GM gen4 v8?

[doood]

If I were to pick up a junkyard gen4, would I have to run Holley (TerminatorX) or a Mega Squirt ECU to run a drive by cable throttle body? I'm not interested in using an electronic pedal, but I am interested in using a motor with VVT and not DOD, like the 4.8L L20 for my next swap.

I know many have modified the gas pedal that came with the donor truck, but if I absolutely had to go with drive by wire, I think I'd spring for the $150 CTSV pedal.

Who is running DBC and who is running DBW in their gen4 58-reluctor swap?

I use bicycle brake cable and sheath. I have a factory firewall sheath and splice a piece of the bicycle sheath to it.

Put a ball of silver solder onto the pedal end of the cable. It’s worked for 4 years.

Seems like I'm the only one who know's what you are asking. Do those aftermarket ones support being able to run a Cable TB on 58X? I've never looked into it because I run Gen III stuff.

The whole bit of wanting to Carb a VVT Engine made me laugh harder than it should, some people don't understand technology. Scary wires n sht...

Stock 99-02 GM V8 GMT800 Truck Cable works perfectly fine, been in my SS for 9 years or so..
