i just complete exactly what you want like 1 week ago.. you need to open you ecm and check if it has the internals that controls the IAC valve, check here: www.lt1swap.com
if your ecm does has the internals that controls the IAC valve then this is what i did:

on the tune file depot webpage i find a 04 or 05 GTO manual calibration, this one uses a 1mb ECM but still uses the drive by cable, then i did a full flash, then changue the parameters on the tune to suit your engine, like displacement, spark tables, VE tables ,, and it is runing just ok now

400ss does the gto tune fit the truck wiring harness?

EDIT -

The 1 MB GTO tune did not load into my '99 512k computer.

Used an automatic tranny truck tune with the automatic SES codes turned off. Works great.
