I don't think it will. '97s and '03s are the oddballs of our generation. Usually if there is a rule, they're the exception. I'll let someone else chime in for a second opinion.

Btw, might want to shrink that sig pic a bit.

I to believe 97 was an oddball year if I rememver right. If im correct I believe the 97 had its own tune

97s are unique. That 01 PCM isnt worth anything to you other then as a core replacement.

iirc the only PCMs that are swappable are 98-02.
