Thanks for the advice, lord knows I'm gonna need it as I'm a diesel mechanic trying to figure all of this stuff out. I thought though if i bought another PCM I could have it flashed,tuned and ready when I put this motor in (in a year or so! LOL) because this truck is my lifeline and I can't afford to have it down for a long time.

Thanks for the hook up. Is that refreshed or just out of the vehicle?

You'll need to wait until you get your parts picked out for your motor before you get a tune, your heads, cam, everything will make a difference in what the tuner does with the tune

yeah this is going to be a pretty big project for me as i'm a diesel mechanic and this is like reading a different language. thanks for the help though I'll be needing a lot of it as this projest grows because the mor more threads that I read, the more I think that's what I need to do.

depending on the miles its a fare price! how many miles? and what year and what is it out off ? you wanna try to get and lq9 couse its the 6.0 HO , it come out of escalades ans silverado ss, and if its an lq4 then try for it to come out of a 04 and up denali ,

It has 118k and it is out of a van. I'm sure that it's an LQ4. I hav e dumb question though. What's the actual difference between the LQ9 and LQ4? Can a guy get a 6.0 short block and make it an HO?
