    It's not possible to run DBC on anything like a E67/E38 or newer. Unless somebody knows different.

    Going to need to install the DBW again and matching throttle pedal to use a stock pcm.
    2016 Silverado CCSB 5.3/6L80e, not as slow but still heavy.

    If you don't post your tune and logs when you have questions you aren't helping yourself.

    If you’re looking to run a cable throttle with a new PCM that’s intended for a drive-by-wire system, you’re going to need a standalone ECU solution for this. The FiTech Ultimate LS ECU & Harness Standalone Kit could work for LS engine swaps in older cars and is specifically for cable throttles . Another option is the MS3Pro Ultimate Standalone ECU, which offers a wide array of features and supports numerous engine types, making it a versatile choice for various configurations
