Default 94 4L60E swap into 97 WS6

Hey guys,

I've been searching have not yet been able to find a solid, straight forward answer for this questions. I have a 94 F-body 4L60E transmission I bought as a level 3 from Performabuilt...for a different car. The trans was going in a 94 but that project is not happening anymore. I want to put it in my 97 WS6. I have been searching but have been unable to figure out exactly what all needs to happen to make it all work. If it makes a difference the car is also getting a 24x swap with an LS1 pcm (411). Your input is very welcome. Thanks.

Zach

The 1997/96 PCM cannot communicate with the 1994 from what I have read...

I have a 94' Z28 and have a 96 OBDII PCM in charge.. And it operates everything flawlessly.. Even better than the 94' PCM with the stall wall issues.. Just gonna need a tuner to tune it before you operate it..

The Torqhead 24x kit is what I have. I had some guys on another thread say the gen 3 LS pcm can't control the 94-95 transmissions but the Torqhead pcm, according to them, will control the earlier transmissions no problem...so it sounds like as long as you tell the computer it's a 94 transmission...it should be able to control it. I am going to get in touch with a few tuners to see what hey say about it.
