    You will have to segment swap the flex fuel file into your file. Just swap the engine and engine diag segments.

    I tried to do a segment swap it wouldn't let me is grayed out because of different OS from what I've gathered .. thinking about using the tahoe flex tune and just changing the vin with vin wizard then copy all my stuff over .. would this work ? 2002 po1 ecu

    Unless something has changed, HPT won't let you create a VIN/OS mismatch. There are other products out there that will. Once the VIN/OS mismatch is created HPT will let you license it though.

    That typically breaks their licensing scheme.

    I thought that only mattered if the year code of the VIN didn't fall within years covered by the OS.
