oh I see ,so this just happened
The 40 mph stuck tells me you are in limp mode ( lack of power where the engine computer detects major fault and restircted performance ,and that can be caused by several things ,
Throtle body ,MAF sensor ,Misfire or Trannsmion issues
The most common on these silverado is the TB body , now ussualy it willnot comed on used engine ,they used your old one
you have to have them recheck it for you
