DBW Pedal Bracket Kit GM S10 Trk 81-93 1st-Gen

The DBW Pedal Bracket Kit GM S10 Trk 81-93 1st-Gen by Holley is purpose-built for first-generation S10 truck owners converting to drive-by-wire throttle control systems. This bracket kit addresses a critical gap in the swap ecosystem: factory S10 pedal assemblies were designed for mechanical cable actuation, not electronic sensor inputs. When upgrading to modern EFI or LS engine conversions with DBW throttle bodies, the original pedal mounting geometry and travel range don't align with electronic control module expectations. This kit solves that mismatch, ensuring proper pedal response mapping and fail-safe behavior.

The bracket system mechanically repositions and adapts the pedal assembly to work seamlessly with Holley's DBW throttle bodies and modern fuel injection controllers. DBW systems require a precision mechanical linkage that translates foot input into a throttle position sensor signal—the bracket ensures correct pivot points, lever arm ratios, and return spring preload to maintain linear response across the full 0–100% throttle range. The kit's compact footprint (6.3 x 3.7 x 8.3 inches, weighing just 1.15 lbs) integrates into tight first-gen S10 cabins without frame or firewall modification. The mounting hardware and bracket design account for the unique pedal box geometry of 1981–1993 S10 trucks, eliminating guesswork and fabrication errors common in universal brackets.

Mechanics and engine builders converting 1st-gen S10 trucks to LS, 5.3L, or turbo platforms benefit most from this kit because it eliminates one of the most overlooked integration failures in DBW swaps—improper pedal tuning that causes stumbling, lag, or safety limp-home mode activation. Installation pairs directly with Holley's DBW throttle bodies and EFI systems, making it essential for buyers committing to a complete electronic fuel injection retrofit. Whether you're restoring a classic S10 with modern power or building a weekend performance truck, the DBW Pedal Bracket Kit ensures your throttle control is as precise and responsive as the engine management system itself.
