Default Which PCM for 07 LMG?

I am going to be swapping in a 2007 LMG into a 1984 Firebird. When I picked up the motor it did not come with the factory harness. I would like to stay away from a separate ECM and TCM. I would like to know what PCM I could use for the 58x reluctor, DBW throttle body and 4L80E trans and which electronic pedal I would need. I will not be using any DOD or VVT.

If you want to use an older all in one PCM (red-blue or green-blue connectors) you will need to get a 58x to 24x conversion box from Lingenfelter.

Factor up the costs of the conversion box and the mods you may have to make to an older harness to fit the Gen 4 and you may find that using an E38 and TCM combo will save you money in the long run.

I was afraid someone would say that....there isn't anything that reads a 58x reluctor that uses a single PCM and DBW?

Sorry. Nothing in the factory lineup that will do what you want without the adapter.

Do you already have the older style harness and PCM?

No, I have a harness that came out of a 2010 truck. I would need to get the ECM, TCM and harness, pedal with the TAC module and whatever else I would need.

That harness will use the E38 ECM and the T42 TCM. You only need a pedal. No TAC module from 07 on up.

Any throttle body from a 2010 Truck should work or will one from a 2003+ work also? The reason I ask is because I can't find a pedal that new anywhere.

Here's a pedal solution

The truck pedals don't usually fit too well in cars. Search around there's lots of 3rd gen swaps already done.

It's not the swap that I'm worried about, its the PCM wiring that I'm trying to figure out which route will be a little more cost effective. I may even swap out reluctor wheels and just run a Gen III computer and harness...Thanks for the thread by the way, that may come in handy if I decide to stick with all Gen IV stuff.
