Early S197 Coyote swap.

[Mbara80626]

Hi everybody.
I have a question.
I am swapping a gen2 coyote with gen 1 timing components.
I am using Matts swap harness along with a 12 ecu
Also using a 6r80 transmission from a 13 GT

So, My question is about the trans.
Do I have to swap out my current shifter to a 11-14 shifter and cable?

Either need to use the PBH shift able bracket, or I've seen people use the 11-14 shifter and cable and clever trim work to make it look nice

Matt. I have one more question for you. I watched one your YouTube video and you lightly talked about the traction control light being on. Did you ever resolve that issue?

No. The older abs isn’t compatible

Is it feasible to try to swap a 11-14 unit since we're using a newer ecu to communicate with?

No. A client tried and said it was not worth it nor even worked

Hey Matt..

I just watched your You tube video of the 6R80 swap on the early s197 and mentioned that the cruse control needs a ground added. i already own your swap harness and wanted to know what needs to be done or added to make the cruise work? Do i need to send it back to You or can i do it myself?

Thanks Mike
