Hey guys I'm new here. I could use some of your knowledge. I have a 92 Silverado 5.7 /700r and I want to updrade my PCM to the later one so I can reuse the chip for tuning. I was just wandering which one to go with?

:welcome:

The are details and then there are even more details for upgrading the 92 Silverado computer! The 92 Silverado computer upgrade is not bolt on ... or ... plug - n - play.

The three basic rules for a computer upgrade are homework, followed with more homework and last but not least ... even more homework:mad1:

If you have the budget, there is the option to use the Dynamic EFI EBL_Flash self tuning system: https://www.dynamicefi.com/EBL_Flash.php it's less homework and has auto tuning features.

The factory computer is less expensive, but requires HOMEWORK!

I often say ... the more you know about EFI the less you pay for EFI ... the more you know about EFI the faster your ride will go with EFI:thumbsup:

Wow,thanks Dave. I'm definitely going with the dynamic efi. I never knew such a thing existed for TBI.

In my first post, I should have listed or identified the computer upgrade Homework assignment.

Step One - Homework, which computer to upgrade to.

Step Two - Homework, computer re-wiring requirements.

Step Three - Homework, Tuning hardware (chip programming / flashing) and Tuning software.

Dynamic EFI simplifies the computer upgrade Homework.:thumbsup:

Last year I upgraded my 92 Silverado from 7747 to 7427. It's definitely doable - the information is there, but I wouldn't call it easy. And in the end, you still need to learn the 7427 (I had already used one for almost 10 years).

Edit: guess I missed your post about adopting dynamic. My bad!
