There's a comment I hadn't heard before...why does safety dictate removal of the DBW? I was planning on using it.

The drive by wire is of zero concern is a factory ECM is used. 99% of the LS motors we sell and install use a factory / GMPP ECM.

As Pantera mentions, I too have concerns with aftermarket ECMs and DBW even though some aftermarket systems do have DBW capabilities.
