Well good news figured it all out... For my swap I put a 2006 drive train in to the 2005 chevy... didn't really have to swap a whole lot other than the manifold... everything else works as it should. Have a hold light and a blinking engine light which I'm guessing is the crank sensor that I read in the previous post of putting a 2006 motor in the 2005.

Very happy that this worked out the way it did. the problem that I was having ended up being 3 little but big bolts they were the torque converter bolts apparently the guy who i bought the engine and transmission was going to split the two and started by taking out the torque converter bolts. thankfully they didn't.

Now I have a drivable 2005 chevy with 69,000 miles. odometer reads 160,000 but I don't care!

Things to remember for anyone that reads this... always check the torque converter bolts, its an easy access cover and always change your timing belt at the recommended mileage.

Mahalo,
