Hello,
Tuned a couple cars with HPtuners and so far so good. I have a big block 454 in 1972 in a Chevelle I am working on. I have access to a 99 Truck with a Vortec 7400. My goal was to remove everything from the truck in regard to the ECU and install it into the Chevelle. As I have been doing research for a couple of days I am learning that the so called black box that came in Vortecs is not very desirable and the most people convert their Vortecs to 0411 ECMs. My goal is just to get this car running with an 0411 and a harness from whatever will work best! As a twist I am going to be running a 4L60e instead of a 4L80e. The current setup is 454 with dual carbs and 700r4. I am ordering a 4L60e and looking to use a Vortec harness or whatever works best with an Edelbrock Pro Flo BBC efi intake and my new electronic transmission. Not sure how I would get the ignition up and running properly since my current engine is carbureted with a distributor (and I can't remember if the engine I am pulling the parts off of has one or COPs) Can someone please point me in the direction of a definitive swap thread or the right direction to look in?
Thanks,
Dan
