94/95 4L60E Parts Swap

Ok, I was told that the PCM's and transmissions from 94 and 95 were not interchangeable. For example you can't use a 94 trans with a 95 PCM and also the other way around because the "method of communication" between the two is different and not compatible. I was told that the PCM would get damaged. Is that true? If it were true, would it be possible to take all of the internal components from a 94 (the pressure switch, solenoids, TCC valve and the sensors and swap them into a 95 Trans. I know that the internal harness is the same for both because they fit 93 and up. The reason that I am asking this is because I have a 94 engine that has been turned into a 383, the 94 PCM and 94 4L60E that I want to put into a 95 Z28. The 94 trans has had a few problems in the past and the trans in the 95 has never had any problems. I would like to use that trans if possible. If they are compatible then there is no problem. If they are not then that is why I am asking if the electrical components can be switched. Sorry for the long post. I just wanted to give as much detail as possible.
Thanks
Pete

The 94 tranny can be made to work with a 95 computer and vice versa. I've seen posts from madwolf on how to do it. You can contact him at madz28.com

Re: 94/95 4L60E Parts Swap

The 94 and 95 PCMs are the same. The only difference is the program. The 95 trans uses a different converter lockup. If you use the 95 trans with a 95 wireing harness and a 95 program flashed into the PCM it should work fine. The wireing harness I am talking about is the one that goes from the PCM to the trans. I think it has an additional wire compared to the 94 harness because of the different lockup.
