Default ECM confusion

Well im confused about the ECM and PCMs from Delphi and GM different makes. i have a specific question in mind. how do you tell if the ECM is from a camaro or truck/van/GTO/Ect..? I know they can have the same service number, like mine is 12200411, something sorta popular on this site. HWD # is 09386530. ive looked this HDW number up and it scared the crap outta me. it was advertised as a ECM for a 6.0 liter for 01 silverado... but the HDW number suggest it came from an S10... BUT... how does an S10 have red and blue connections? its marked red on one side then blue on the other.. as iv seen on here many have made it clear yhat red and blue is Fbody

If a PCM has two 80 pin connectors one red one blue it can be programed to work in
F bodies 99-02, Vettes 99-03, S10 4.3L, C\K lSX trucks 99-02 and some early Duramaxes

9354896 is the other service number.

OS is Operating System. You will have to use an operating system that will work for your application. You haven't given any information to recommend one.

For the MAP (manifold absolute pressure) sensor, pressure is measured in bars. 1 bar = astmospheric pressure.

MAF= Mass Air Flow it measures air flow.

thank you, i plan on turbo charging so that means more bars...
for right now the application is stock fuel injection, 01 LM7 5.3 liter. and later on ill turbocharge it. doing this on stock internals wouldnt be wise but has anyone done it?
