So heres what i have.
- 2008 escalade chassis with ecm, bcm ,column with key, instrument cluster, fuseboxs. swapped with an old car body
i've driven this car a few miles as it sits but nothing longer due to other factors with the body etc.
i dont have to but eventually i'd like to swap it to a manual transmission if i could.
i've read a few things about the vss 158 mph issue and tweaks there and jumping the tcm can wires if the 6l80 isnt there anymore.
my question is what do i need to keep in order for the vehicle to start and read speedo signal and other than the vss 158 mph guidelines is there anything in the tune i would need to mess with so it would run ok?
i've read people doing g8 manual swaps but those came factory manual in the us from other tunes. i know that 08 up silverado 3500s in mexico came factory with manual transmissions but i havent had much luck finding any tune info from them. if it didnt have bcm and factory cluster etc i could probably just stand alone everything but id like to keep all of those things so i have correct fuel level and alot of oem parts if i need to replace anything down the line. if you need any more information let me know.
Thanks for your time
