using truck computer in ls swap???
using truck computer in ls swap??? I'm doing an ls6 swap into my lt1 TA. The computer that I got with my harness, turned to be bad, and I cannot find a computer for a car locally. I have researched that 1999-2000 truck computers are the same part numbers as fbody ones, but have been told sometimes they have problem reflashing them and getting them to work in the fbody. Do I need to have any concerns? Thanks

That PCM is the most forgiving, it's difficult to damage it if you are careful.
Even the truck's OS can work with a car swap, you just need a little more tuning work.
Find the best OS for your application and flash it over, you'll be ok

They are basically the same. I have flashed several of them from F-Body to truck and viceversa without issues.

Just wondering, but could the truck OS be used along with some kind of toggle switch to flip back & fourth between Tow/Haul mode for some kind of an on the fly street / strip mode?

Yes, it's possible but you need the BCM to hook the toggle switch. There is no PCM input to activate a tow/haul mode, it need to be acivated using Class 2 comms. The BCM sends the signal when the proper pin is grounded
