    Kevhill85 2dr Tahoe build

    My plans
    1) 4link truck so I can keep back seat
    2) install ls1 383 stroker / 4l60e
    3) redone the to all black
    4) remove all bags
    5) make it more a prostreet truck
    6) coil over the rear
    7) install a 6lug 10bolt narrowed 3inch
    8) whatever else I can think of
    9) complete frame made of 2x4 1/4 wall . We added the rear clip to the new frame so I can still run a rear bumper .
    10) set of 317 heads milled .030





    Updated photo's right here

    I was checking out lt1swp to see if I need to buy a new PCM but I am not sure still. Ok here is what I am try to figure out.

    I have a blue / Green PCM that lt1swap shows it can be use with a DBC.. Has anyone use the green/blue PCM I place of the red/blue PCM?
    photo of my PCM tag?.. Can this PCM be tuned for DBC?
