Lokar DBW pedal compatibility?

Was lookin at pedal sets earlier. Is a simple retune all id need for it to work with a dbw Tb on a 6.0? I know it'd be easier to just use a Chevy one but even though this'll be a driver id like to show it and it not looked hacked together with mismatched stuff. As always, thanks!

Re: Lokar DBW pedal compatibility?

What engine are you running? I think LOKARr DBW setups only work for particular computers/setups. I would call and make sure before purchasing one. If your's a Gen IV motor, you can upgrade to a 05+ vette pedal. Here's what I used in mine and a link to the adapter bracket I make:

You can use a factory 71/72 CST truck pedal on the Corvette pedal.

I also sell an adapter bracket for the GEN III truck and SUV pedals. You can install a 71/72 truck CST pedal on the truck/SUB DBW pedal.

Re: Lokar DBW pedal compatibility?

I'm not sure on compatibility, but if you've never driven a car with a Lokar DBW pedal, be aware they are super soft, I would say too soft. The spring in them just isn't strong enough so they feel real touchy. Not trying to sway you one way or another, but factory pedals are a little nicer in my opinion, but that's just my $0.02.

Re: Lokar DBW pedal compatibility?

Yeah Nova, wasn't directly set on lokar, it'd just be easier per say, I can get it through the shop for cost to the shop and not have to pay for the mark up. Definitely still lookin. Thanks all for replies. More research to do tomorrow.
