pcm programming for Efans/v8 s-10

I was kicking around purchasing HPT to tune the pcm in my s-10. It's an 00 with a 01 5.3, and 4l60 e out of a fullsize I am going to use the pcm from the 01 to bring it all to life on. My questions come in the form of the electric fans and setting the pcm for them. I wired the pressure switch from an 05 chevy pickup into the pcm in the correct pins along with the relays to control the high and low speed functions. Can the pressure temp chart from an 05 fullsize somehow be pasted into the pcm so that it will control the fans exactly as stock along with cycling and control of the a/c clutch into the 01pcm. On the flip side I would also like to program the f-body shift schedule and tcc control parameters over the stock truck settings. Oh also put an ls6 cam in it. Is all of this something that is do able easily or do I need to take this to a custom programmer and tell them what I am wanting in order to avoid a whole lot of troubles. I am familiar with a lot of the pcm programming just trying to get an idea of tackling it on my own.

If you decide on just needing a program or programmer, i can set you up with all your mods no problem. $158.10 including the 2002 computer. Also, If you are wanting to do it yourself. Usually i give out Free starter tunes with Efilive software.

Do you do the tuned computer on an exchange basis? I am kind of good with whatever bc once it is in and working I am not planning on retuning or tinkering with it so once it's tuned and the bugs are out that's how it will stay.

Well if I got the program from you to DIY is there a way that I could add vins to tune my 98 fullsize, that would justify the purchase then.

Hey Chris, Jared @ Current Performance made my harness with two relays and the wiring to hook them up. Under his tunes they would come on around 175 to 180 and that is with the 99 Silverado ecm. Not sure if Tracy @ Fuel Injection Specialities changed that but my fans still operate. Hope that helps.
