Unlocking the ecu on your 2019 Chevy Silverado 3500 (6.0L V8) to work with the Flashpaq F5 # SU2847 depends on the body style of your truck. If you have the legacy body, it is plug and play on your computer. If it is the newer body, you will have to send in the vehicle's computer in to get it unlocked by Superchips in order for it to be compatible with the F5.
