I'm about 90% sure it does. the pcm is no different. Hell, I might take it one step further, and see if there isnt a place I could put the 3 relays in my underhood fuse box, where they are form the factory, and pin it up there. Or see about getting that block from an 05+. this is gonna be fun.....
I cant wait!! I love this stuff!!

the GM relays used for the trucks are an odd shape.....not a normal bosch type relay. Ive picked up about half a dozen relays and connectors from ebay for CHEAP and after seeing them and the wiring, decided to go a somewhat OEM way. I have a preliminary harness I just built a little bit ago......gonna give those a shot, as they are 40 amp GM relays and sealed connectors. Now I just have to dig up the two PCM pins I have........and get another liscense in EFIlive for the new truck.....there goes 99 bucks. That will probably happen later this week. Or tomorrow. Who knows.........
