5.7 Vortec - Manual trans conversion
I'm not real sure where to starts, but I've looked through a few pages of results and haven't found my situation. Ill keep looking around, as I just got HP tuners and have a couple of projects on deck for it. This truck, and the main project - a L8T transplant into a 1984 Toyota Landcruiser. But I gotta get my feet wet. lol
Truck is 1997 K1500 with the 5.7 Vortec and 4l60E trans. Going with a 5 speed manual.
At this point, I haven't even connected to the truck yet. Like I said, I just got the HP Tuner.
I found this thread, but its a newer LS engine. I'm not sure how it will relate to the older Vortec.

Also go into the system options and put a zero in the cell if brake torque mngt is on.
Anybody offer any guidance? Hopefully, I will be able to accomplish this.
Thanks
