Default 6l80 in a First Gen F-body

I have a 2002 LQ9 from an Escalade I plan to warm over and install in a first gen f-body. Will a 6l80 communicate (compatible) with the ECM from the LQ9?

Thanks!

Guess this is not a very interesting/popular topic!

No, it will not. The 6L80 has the TCM in the pan on the trans. You would need an ECM out of a similar vehicle so they would talk. Very complicated setup. Probably not worth the effort for now, to many unknowns. I would recommend a 4L80 for strength.
