Default swap car tune into a truck?

i have a 2001 zo6 (ls6) that is h/c/i bolt on and tuned

im installing a lq4 block with the heads, cam & injectors from the zo6 into a 2004 silverado 1500 2wd, can i swap the tune from the car into the truck? i know it need a dyno tune but need it up and running asap and my tuner is moving and cant get to it right way

i dont plan on beating on it im sure the tune wont be ideal but should be better then the 4.8 tune lol can this be done?

Can't be directly swapped nor would you want to. 02 is P01 PCM 500KB file size and 04 Silv is P59 1MB file size. Differences in the ETC between the two platforms too along with many other things.. Just need to copy certain tables from the 01 calibration to the 04.

At a minimum, you will need to transfer over the injector tables, idle airflow, VE, MAF, and timing.
