Default Question about engine swap.

I am looking at a C6 that does not have motor or trans. Very nice car overall.

I built a 6.2 from an 07 Denali for a different project, then changed my mind. Can I use the ecm/bcm/tcm from this C6 and put my 6.2 in the car? I know I would need it tuned, just need to know if I need a new ecm or not.

Thanks in advance.
Mike

I got the info needed. 👍

Yep, shouldn't be an issue at all. If its an iron block some sensors may be located a little differently but all stuff thats easy to fix. If its an aluminum it should pretty much be plug and play (tune withstanding). You'll need a Corvette front drive assembly and balancer though, truck stuff sets out way too far.
