    L83/6L80 Swap Starts Then Dies

    I've been searching for a couple days now and can't figure this out. I got my harness and programming done by Speartech and I'm using a Silverado fuel pump and the FPCM supplied by Speartech. The engine fires and runs for a few seconds, a little longer if I pump the gas, but then dies. I confirmed the disabled VATS and Starter Diagnostics and I ran a quick scan of my 3 start attempts. I'm kinda suspecting a fuel issue:

    Fuel Pressure (SAE)-198kpa or 29PSI, stays the same
    Fuel Pressure Requested-500kpa or 72psi (fluctuates slightly)
    Fuel Pressure Sensor-0.00V

    Shouldn't the sensor voltage be around 5V??? Also shouldn't that fuel pressure SAE match the requested fuel?

    I have a ton of codes coming up as well, not sure if everything is related but I gotta start somewhere. Any help on what to do from here is greatly appreciated.

    Thanks,
    Sean

    I did a bit more. I can hear the fuel pump do the initial prime but that's it. Also cleared all my codes and tried it again and these codes came up:

    P018B-Fuel Pressure Sensor B Circuit Intermittent
    P0073-Ambient Air Temp Sensor Circuit High Input
    P023F-Fuel Pump Secondary Circuit/Open
    P0463-Fuel Level Sensor A Circuit High Input
    U1510-GM Specific, sounds like HVAC communications failure or something unrelated.

    I'm at a loss of what to do next,
    Thanks,
    Sean

    Post your log and tune file for better help

    Alright, thanks for the reply, I'll try to figure out how to do this.

    I noticed my O2 sensors aren't matching up, seems odd to me.

    I was just reading some other posts and realized I never even thought about something. I have swapped an LT1 intake and throttlebody onto my engine, is there something I would have to change in my tune. Such a dummy lol.

    Thanks again,
    Sean

    There's the log files but still need the tune file. Add it in attachments

    Those codes are useless in a swap. I see some are still active. Uncheck those codes and set to "No Error Reported"

    Yeah, I guess I forgot to update that after talking to Speartech. The ones that I was focused on were the P018B,C, and D that come up, I assumed they had to do with the Fuel Pressure Sensor not sending voltage signals to the ECM. Are you saying I should get rid of those even if I'm using the FPCM??

    I had to edit that post, for some reason I put P018B as fuel temp instead of Fuel Pressure sensor B.

    I really appreciate the help,
