Swapped a 2013 5.3 with the 6L8oe trans into a 1963 chevy panel truck, well i couldnt get it started so i dragged it to a tuning shop. Short story the PCM/TCM didnt match so a different tune from a different year was up loaded, they kept the truck for days and here are the issues thus far..
truck weighs 4800 pounds
3.73 gears
235/70/15
dyno 281hp and 301fp
WOT she wont shift from 2nd to 3rd and 3rd to 4th i have to let off the throttle for it to shift
during hot start the valves clatter
down shifting from 4th and 5th valves clatter, have to hit the gas hard and it down shifts 2 gears
when the mass air flow is hooked up and the truck surges/varied RPM so ive been running with it unhooked
Panel truck tune 1.hpt
