I have the stock 2000 silverado engine/trans wiring harness too not sure about trans connections either. My tranny has the large round connector and a single two pin connector?
You can do my method (PM me) or buy a conversion harness. Unless you scrounge around the junkyard my method is probably a little cheaper.

so let me clarify this you DO NOT have to merge files now?

I'm in the midst of getting ready to do a 6.0/4l80E swap into my M6 99' TA

I purchased the LSXtune M6 to 4l80E harness adapter...I had planned on merging files, if I can load up a 4l60E file and make it work that would be fantastic....

You say you had a change of heart in the first post? Care to explain? Are you using the 60e tune now or did you go ahead and use the 80e overlay to control the trans?

Yeah ditto. More info. It might have been done a long time ago, but if no one knew about it, so what. At least this guy has figured it out, done it and shared it in the public domain. Kudos to him.

Well I did leave out 2 important pieces of info left up to the reader to figure out (or PM me).

I am still running the 4L60 tune and it is my daily driver as well, so it has been fairly thoroughly tested.

Can you use both the VSS and ISS sensors or should you just use the rear sensor?
