Hey guys, new to the site. I have a question for ya. I have a 2005 Silverado RCSB that started life as a 4.3/MT. I have since swapped in a 5.3, still manual transmission. My issue is running the TAC module harness. Obviously the 4.3 was cable throttle body, and now is drive by wire. This truck should still have the harness that passes through the firewall and connects the TAC to the pedal from the factory, correct? I found the end of the harness under the hood that connects to the TAC, but I can't find the pedal side of the harness anywhere. Can anyone send me a pic or tell me where to find it? It would be greatly appreciated.

That is odd. You should be looking for a 6-wire harness with a 10 pin male connector on the pedal side of the firewall. Can you pull the firewall grommet out to help find where it goes? I don't actually have an 04 Avalanche to describe where it should be under the dash. I bought my engine, pedal, and harnesses off craigslist to swap into my 69 Camaro and they were already pulled.

I see where the main harness comes in, and it's all taped obviously, but there's no way that tape is hiding a connector of that size. I pulled the footwell fuse block, thinking it could be taped behind it or something, but no. On automatic trucks, the harness runs through where the clutch master cylinder would be on manual trucks. So on a factory 4.8/manual transmission truck, I have no idea what they do with the TAC harness.
