Cross Contamination - 6L80E in a Truck with Corvette Driver Shift Control
I'm doing initial planning on a pro-touring, air suspended, L9H 6.2L / 6L80E powered 1954 GMC Suburban. What I need help with is:
Is it possible to physically(?) and/or electronically(?) add the Corvette Driver Shift Control parameters into the truck version of the 6L80E? The goal is to have the torque/tow capacity/tow-haul mode of the truck while allowing the "driver to shift the transmission like a clutchless manual gearbox." I also want the (PAS) Performance Algorithm Shifting and Grade Braking.
I'm wondering if these functions are all electronic and can be "tuned" in to work together or if they are mechanical/hydraulic and not compatible with each other??
I am just now beginning to research this so don't flame me if I'm barking up the wrong tree. I already searched and didn't find anything addressing this.
Oh yeah, I'm also planning on running a Whipple Supercharger on this.
I would truly appreciate any educated info regarding this swap.

I know the T/H mode and grade braking is very aggressive. Even in a stock truck the down shifting in T/H mode is very harsh. It would be not much better in a lighter unloaded truck.
Be better to just have the TUTD function.
