excellent! good luck getting it wrapped up! the worst of it should be behind you now.

If you're going to have it done by Sunday, why not go to the Summer M&G on the 26th?

well because i still have a wedding that day, and by done I only mean running. Not broken in and tuned. Break in will be fun cause im going to have to change the oil 3 or 4 times and flush the radiator out. It will take me AT LEAST a week of messing around with the PCM to get the tune good enough to trust on a road trip too, probably longer than that.

Ah, bummer.

are you tuning with a wb? which one? where are u going to put the sensor?

u plannin to run just water at first? or goin straight to water/coolant mix?

[JoeliusZ28]

LC-1 wideband, its mounted in my y-pipe immediately after my magnaflow merge.

And yea probably just straight water the first time because im sure there is a bunch of garbage in the block from having everything apart.

[Transamsfast]

Dang i cant wait!

[JoeliusZ28]

sunday is going to be a big work day if anyone wants to help. starting at noon or so.

did you add it as an input to datalog with datamaster or are you just doing it standalone style?

personally, i hate tuning the lt1 pcm. there is no clarity on where SD is used and where MAF table is used.

i agree on the water straight at first... esp when the heads have been off.

[JoeliusZ28]

added it as an input with datamaster using the AC pressure sensor. Seems to work perfectly.

and yea i was looking around for where i can compare that data to other values... sounds like im gonna have fun.
