04 Truck TB -- Which non-truck pedal/TAC can I use?

I have an '04 escalade throttle body. I realize I can use an 04 tac and pedal, but I'd rather go with something that looks nicer and is a bit more low profile. I read that a re-pinned Corvette pedal would work but haven't seen any solid confirmation of what other pedal options there are.

Anyone have experience they can share? Thanks in advance!

Re: 04 Truck TB -- Which non-truck pedal/TAC can I use?

I read just now in "How to Use and Upgrade to GM Gen III LS-Series Powertrain Control Systems" that the 1997-2004 Corvette and 2004-2005 CTS-V pedals have the same output. So, I think the CTS pedal is another option I may consider.

However, now I'm rethinking the use of the truck pedal; since it's got a metal arm, I could modify it more easily to have whatever ergonomics I want...

What's wrong with a truck pedal? Sounds like you're creating a problem that doesn't exist. There are enough challenges in a build, no need to create another. Using the stock truck pedal with stock bracket is an easy bolt on that preserves the stock parts the engine was intended to use.

That pedal does look nice, what year is it from? I've been looking at pedals with metal arms which I like because they could be repositioned but yours does look well-placed there...

It's specifically from an 06 Silverado but we have an 08 Tahoe and it's the same exact setup. (PN: 15107594) Make sure you get the bracket to go with the pedal, makes the install super simple.

You can use the 03-06 truck pedal and install the 71-72 CST truck pedal and trim on it. Here are some pictures. I also sell and adapter bracket to mount the truck pedal if that is the route you decide to use. Here's the link: http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=651123
