Need a chip burned 1992 B4C camaro

I could help you with a chip. I would use the Moates.net G1 adapter, with the chip installed into the adapter, see attached picture.

Send me a Private Message (PM) if your interested in the details. It's likely the parts from Moates.net will get to Florida faster than I can get parts to you from Washington State.

The G1 adapter can also be used with an Ostrich 2.0 chip emulator. (see picture below)

G1 adapter ordered the other day so I should have everything now. really wish I would have ordered the adapter the same time as the ostrich but someone said I didnt need it.

OK fixing to start tuning, I noticed the chip is AXYC that come up as a 90 f car 305 5 speed, Mine is a 92 ..... soory I had it listed as TC it was actually YC ok I found someone else on line that had a 92 B4C 305 /5 speed that had the factory replacement ECM with the same chip so that doesnt seem to be a problem

OK Im kinda lost, I have a good deal of paperwork printed out describing what all the functions do, but I really dont know where to begin with my tuning, If I install the tuning adapter without a chip piggybacking it, I will not have any tune correct? ok I found a .Bin file from a factory 92 5.7 a4 factory replacement memcal, opened it up in tunercat and set the manual trans, and adjusted the timing chart down a bit in the upper rpms, knowing the vortec chambers wont need that much timing, it was pretty high. Also is there a way to read the tune off my current chip? My car has always had the primary fan come on , eve if the temp switch is disconnected and I wondered if that was a cop tune thing to keep the engine cool as possible .

OK Ive been getting some work done to her, Shes running and driving and I finally got off my ass and welded up the exhaust , and welded in a extra O2 bung right at the y pipe merge, and picked up a used LC-2 wideband and Im gonna get it installed thenext warm day, but Im having fits with My rockers and valve covers, bought some tall aftermarket covers because my vette valve covers where hitting the top of the polylocs and not letting the gasket seal so I had oil leaks that scared me for a min. My plug wires where shit, kinda knew that so I got off my wallet and bought a new set of under header taylors, and figured out the remote coil really needed to be grounded to the engine not laying around loose. . So now its running alot better, found a tune for a 92 5.7 auto camaro and loaded it into the ostrich and played with a few settings , and i forgot the cam has alot more over lap. so That explains the ecessive richness at idle. I,m gonna try and tune it in open loop , but at least now I can drive it and it sounds bad ass, but its breaking up in the higher RPMS , I gotta go get a new timing light and reset the timing. Also installed a nice gear reduction starter I got off a 96 camaro LT1 , so that solved the not starting when hot issue. Its getting there and I couldnt figure out why I couldnt datalog with TPRT and tonight while messing around I figured out it needed a ADX file..lol Im an idiot.

it happens as everyone learns... where did you move to in FL?

**Jim_Rockford** · 12-26-2018

I moved to FLA in may I think and stayed till august, I liked it, just wasnt finding the kinda work I needed. came to N.C. in august and finally had the time and money and urge to work on her. not working out though, it got greedy and drove it since it seemed to be running fair, I was loving the way it sounded with the exhaust hooked up and running on all 8 tanks to some new plug wires and timing set to a known value. burned the coating on my new headers . sad thing is it runs worse with the 350 tune and the 305 tunes seems alot better I drove it tonight with the 305 chip plugged back in. ran like a stripped ass ape, think it needs more fuel pressure tough, still had a slight stumble at the upper end of the RPM pull .
