I used a computer from a zr1, heard its worth an extra 100hp

nonnieselman 05-01-2012 03:41 PM

no way! i gotta try that

nonnieselman 05-01-2012 03:42 PM

oh and if you put a pcm out of a 6.0 truck, its not goin to crank from the security..
So you would have to get it tuned.I wouldnt drive a 6.0 on a 5.3 tune either, so your goin to need a tune...

So your goin to need a tune either way.
