    Different.

    The LS1/LS6 in that car runs a P01 computer, the truck runs a P59 computer.

    Take bits and pieces that you want and just copy them over if you desire. Remember that a heavy truck won't respond exactly like a corvette so some things in the calibrating may not be ideal because of the application change.
    2016 Silverado CCSB 5.3/6L80e, not as slow but still heavy.

    If you don't post your tune and logs when you have questions you aren't helping yourself.
