I V8 swapped my girl's Astro van with a 2003 Tahoe 5.3 engine, unfortunately we didn't have the original PCM, so I got one from a truck at the salvage yard, I checked the serial numbers and made sure it was compatible, but it turned out it was V6 Silverado. So I downloaded an "OEM" 5.3 file from the repository and used the Compare tools to copy over all the differences, as well as removed the VATS and removed the drive by wire as well, wrote the PCM and plugged it on the van. But then the first try to fire up the engine, there was a backfire so violent that it cracked a hole on the intake manifold.
Is there a way to check if my PCM is correct? Like, can I upload the file to see if anybody can see anything wrong with it?

Also, there was a few parameters that didn't copy from the OEM file, but when I tried to manually change them I got a warning saying the "parameter is out of range"Comparison.jpg
Thanks for your help!!!
