I recently wecked my 01 z28 thats in my sig So i bought a 02 ss and plan to swap the motors. The thing is the ecm is tuned for my h/c motor, and i know there are security procedures when replaceing computer. The other thing is the z has ASR and the ss dosn't. so should i swap the ecm or just fork out the money for a retune.

You should be fine.

The relearn for vats should be the only thing that is needed. Or just grab the BCM and plug it in.

I know the vats procedure is a pain it takes like a half hour of turning the key on and off, i've done it on a couple of cars, but only with a new ecm. I didn't know if there was a vin code in there or something crazy like that. But if its going work thats just going to save me money for a tune.

Thanx for the help.

I've seen PCMs swapped between 01 and 02 F-bodies and never had to mess with VATS. A friend totaled his tuned 01 and put that PCM in his new 02 and it worked with no VATS relearn.

The 01 has ASR and the 02 dosn't, will this thing start throwing abs codes. and mess things up.

The cars I was talking about were the same way. Never caused any problems.
