    No, I'm running the original '07 ECM OS and an '07 XLR-V TCM. We tried '08 Denali, Escalade, and 2500 Suburban. None worked. So we're experimenting with various model years and trucks OS's. I think the key is to keep TCM and ECM model years and vehicle drivetrain platforms the same.

    In an ideal world yes, it would be awesome to use the same platform for both ECM and TCM however the TrailBlazer guys are screwed as a 6spd was never a factory option. Too bad the T43 probably isnt like the LS1 PCM where EFILive added the platform options section to control the differences across the different models. Lets you change the alternator output on a V6 Blazer with a 0411 PCM swap running a Camaro OS for example.

    The 07 -> 08 fan clutch difference is the 07 is ECM controlled, the 08-09s arent. Wouldnt throw a light going 07 engine -> 08 OS but going 08 enging -> 07 OS would.

    Its a shame we dont know more about how the different TCM OSs interact with their ECM OS counterparts. Wish GM would have made it consistent, but noooo they have to make each one unique and cause this frustrating issue...grr.
