OK!!
Got the beef today.
First, lost all faith in dealership mechanics.
Yes, they do deserve credit, but limited.
I found a down to earth tech finally.
All 4.2 ECU's are equal.
Flashing is the decider.
Having a tech flash for basic, to run old school smooth.
He told me the auto tranny missing may only cause an engine light.
So,
With Mr 78s help reminding me this had in fact been done.
I pushed forward.
My next stop in will have start up pictures and lets share this.
Thank you all for a fantastic forum.
Drive safe.
And Mr 78, all you have shared, along with others is going to be used, thanks again.

My motor is now out and on the floor,
I flashed the imobiliser off using a drive box before I removed the motor so I should at least be able to get it to start,
I am going to fire it up on the floor also,
I need to find some time and update my thread haha
