That ECM is like a 2 year only ECM and has very little support and information on it. So you're thinking in the right direction about using a different ECM. I don't know whether that particular engine uses gen3 or gen 4 sensors. Does it have the cam sensor in the timing chain cover or it is in the block behind the intake manifold? Depending on which setup it has will determine which other ECM and harness you'll need to use it. If it's gen 4 then you're looking at having to get a pedal and tac module too.

Those envoys are a little weird. Since it's a 05, it SHOULD be a 24x 1x . It also should be a lower compression ( not 799/243 heads). Yeah just use a truck harness and whatever ecm you choose be it 0411 or p59 if that's the case.

I have the pin outs. I ended up with one of these too. I'm at work right now but can get them to you tomorrow.

Public service announcement - Run away from these! Lol. There is so little information out there on them. Very different than the trucks.
