Paul, in your mind I am sure what you just said makes complete sense but I am completely lost sorry.

I think you are telling me to use a production DBW TB motor for the actual throttle, but put a cable on it? As far as the switches and resistors I am totoally lost. I would use a production pedal for a gen IV motor vette, GTO, what ever. Ideally I would like to use the f-body cruise motor to replace the stepper motor, I would mount that under the dash and have a cable go through the firewall so it would kind of look stock. All the rest of the stuff would be Gen IV and hence the reasoning behind the 24x or (I forget if it is 52,54 or 58) wheel on the crank.
I just dont know that it is possible to use the cruise motor like a stepper on a DBW. The 4150 style TB I am thinking about getting also has an IAC (I think) and a TPS. I am thinking maybe I can rewire the DBW stuff to utulize the TPS in the TB and the cruise motor for the stepper?
I would love to test bench this stuff but that would require a lot of money to get set up

FYI this is the TB that I am looking to use
