    pcm help 5.3 to 6.0 pcm swap

    hi all
    I got a cable 5.3 in my nova
    I am in process of getting a 6.0 built it will have dbw
    my question is can I use the 6.0 pcm on the 5.3 ?
    can I use the 4l60e with the 6.0 pcm? if so how do I replace the 4l80e in the pcm with 4l60e?
    can I use the dbw on the 5.3 that was org dbc?
    sorry for all the ?s
    the 6.0 service number is 12576106

    Why not just keep your cable throttle body and make your tune file into a 6.0 tune, all it takes is a couple settings.

    I wouldn't even want to switch to drive by wire if you already have cable, that's just more parts you have to buy. Throttle body, tac module and pedal would all need to be from the same vehicle to work as well and you'd have to swap to a P59 computer.

    Use the segment swap feature to put the 4L80e file into the 5.3 computer.
    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.

    Yes, do not complicate leaving everything like this and you only have to configure the PCM for 6.0 and 4L80, it is very easy with the tool segment swap, just look how it is used
