transmission swap

[autohouse]

Is it possible to program 1998 L31 Vortec pcm from 4L80E to a 4L60E transmission with EFI Live soft ware. Have V2 flashscan software, new user used to different software for German cars. Thanks for any input.

Hello Autohouse,

The 1998-2000 Vortec "black box" PCMs are supported by EFILive software. If you have an existing 1998 tune from a 5.7 L and 4L80 vehicle, you will also need to obtain a 1998 tune with the same OS (operating system) equipped with a 4L60 - and then use the "Copy entire segment" function to import or swap the transmission calibration segment and transmission diagnostic segment.

Check out the Tune File Depot website ... www.tunefiledepot.com (http://www.tunefiledepot.com) for the tune that you require.

While you are at it ... it maybe worth while to upgrade to an LS1-B PCM ... often referred to as an "0411 swap".
