    Need Help ASAP 6l80 swap and wont start

    Hi Guys i bought a brand new 6l80e for my LT83 5.3
    The transmission had a blank TCM so GM flashed it with the stock program
    but in doing this had to also flash an update into my ECU.

    After he installed everything the Engine cranks but wont start.

    Possible that you are running into a VATS issue now.

    Spray some brake cleaner in the throttle body, if it starts and runs on that you have no fuel.
    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.

    I can't help much without the tune file and a data log of you trying to make it run.

    And was the VATS removal done with a write entire or write calibration?
