    Engine swap help

    Need some knowledge! Just put a 5.3 out of a 06 truck into my 07.5. Is it possible to change the reluctor wheel values in the tune? I am in a no start situation right now and could use some help

    No, you need to swap reluctors and cam gear or get a conversion box.
    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.

    Are you referring to the lingenfelter box?

    Yeah. I have no personal experience on how well it works.

    Lingenfelter box is to run a 58x 4x engine with a 24x 1x PCM. There is no box to convert a 24x 1x engine to a 58x 4x ECM.
