meh. i had a customer come to my house a few weeks ago who had been driving around with an SS2 cam on a stock tune for A YEAR. The only thing he wanted adjusted was the idle speed. So i bumped up the idle speeds to 1200 cold, 800 hot. And up'd the base running airflow by 40% across the board. He drove away happy and told me later that he was loving the truck.
definitely not saying you should do that....LOL
Return-less fuel rail? Corvette fuel filter / pressure regulator?Quote:

Thank you yes I'm still using lm7 fuel rail and regulator i will make those changes. Also it's the return style fuel system.Quote:

A lot of things you are doing are not so good.And when you post like that on a forum it is considered shouting.
It's challenging to figure out a good tune for a modified engine. If at all possible, I start with a flash that needs the fewest modifications possible :thumbsup:
One method to build a tune for a modified engine is to copy / paste parameters from a factory flash into the custom flash.
The attached .bin file has 2002 L59 injector parameters. There are several tables for injector parameters.
Possibly copy / paste all the L59 injector parameters from the attached .bin file into the starter flash.
I'm curious about the Alcohol % table if the custom flash is for flex fuel.

The problem with doing that on this build is the FF vehicles with a vacuum referenced regulator used a lower fuel pressure than non FF. That is why the IFR has them at 33 lb/hr/ Those same injectors when used in a non return FF fuel system (05-07 classic L59) used the higher 58 psi pressure like the earlier LM7 vacuum referenced regulator. That is why in this case he needed to use the 35.4 lb/hr setting in his calibration. If he would reply and answer the questions I could give him a good file to start much better than what he is currently using. The file he is using is not a FF calibration.Quote:

Programming for an aftermarket camshaft profile into the original L59 Fash is easily done too.
When the "plan" includes a using mix and match of engine / computer / harness / OS not all from the donor vehicle, the challenges for a flash become complicated and for some overwhelming possibly impossible.

The old saying "the devil is in the details" is echoed again when using a mix and match of engine / computer / harness / OS not all from the donor vehicle.
Sorry about that when i made those post's i was on a phone so the font sizes were showing weird for some reason, but anyhow the truck has a 2800 stall in a 4l60e i built a few thousand miles ago with a bunch of upgrades from sonnax and switched to ZPak from 9 clutch alto's. i have since gotten hp tuners and no longer using tuner pro and seemed to have made some good progress overall its running well dont have a wideband yet but for everyday street driving its good other than after being in traffic for a long time it likes too stall when idling for long periods. doesn't happen very much so haven't changed too much since getting it running good.Quote:
