i think the LQ9 is DBW and the LQ4 is cable throttle, actually i guess it depends what year the engine is. good luck with the swap!

My stock LQ4 is DBW. It all depends on year and option content.
a motor doesnt matter what throttle body preference it has. a TB is not part of a long block thus not a concern when purchasing a motorOriginally Posted by slo92chevy

it ain't that I'm too big to listen to the rumors, It's just that I'm too damn big to pay attention to 'em..That's the difference
the swap should be pretty painless right??? is there any gremlins i shoulkd watch out for??? please let me know be4 i fall into it
he wanted to know some differences betwwen the LQ9 and LQ4 and when i was buying my lq9 it came with the throttle body, gas pedal and TAC module so it may have been a concern when purchasing. But since he has a newer truck i guess its a simpler swap

still doesnt make it a concern. depending on what you swap it to you use that TB. just cause a motor has a GBW on it doesnt mean it is a GBW motor. just means the TB is GBW
a motor has no idea what TB it has.

your right, the engine does not have an idea of what throttle it has and it probably does not care either, but the person buying it might when he has to pay more or less for different equipment on the engine.

That's when you price it as a long block with one price and as a complete engine with another price specifying the differences.
