I'm wondering if someone out there with the same type of config as mine has a tune they can send me. I should add I have 50# injectors, no fmu.

Thanks a lot. i have looked at a couple of the websites that have files but unable to find one right for mine combo.

You caught my attention when you said blown 383 with 50#-ers and no FMU...
A bud of mine has a '96 LT4 vette that we're in the process of tuning. He has the LT1 edit w/laptop and we still have to take it out and do some fuel tables. Here's his setup:

Hey Mike (Cajun Z),

What's up?

97TA-WS6-Con,

Do you have LT1 edit?

I have a couple files that I could email you (one w/ zeroing out knock values, one w/ knock values of max 4 degrees etc.)

I think are cars are pretty similar.

What are you running for a fuel system?

Mine is: 2 Walbro GS340's in tank - 255gph inline - -8an line, Paxton Adjustable Regulator, and MSD 50lbs.

Base fuel pressure is 40lbs - up to 60 in boost - still runs pig rich at 02 values of 935-960.

All runs done on pump gas.

Next step is to lean it out some and see what happens

Madhu

 

Hot diggity.

You have a VERY similar combination as I.

I DO have Edit

I have been running out of fuel with the Walbro 340 M intank and the ATI inline T-Rex so I think I have concluded I need to go to a dual intank.

I run 49 psi and spike to abut 59 - 60 but again the pressure is a little high because I was hoping that would help my fuel problem.

I'm using 94 Octane.

I have sen 13.5 lbs of boost. Best rwhp is 527 but agian I was running out of gas and going REALLY lean. Dangerously lean to be honest.

I certainly would appreciate the tunes you have to date. I am having problems with my LT1 edit though, won't let me upload. Not sure what that is about. In addition I will have to take the car off the road and have the motor looked at. I have had a concern about blow by since the car had the motor installed. I have a rear main oil leak that has been fixed once already and I have had the car running lean for a while.

Add that all together, and prudance dictates I take the motor out and have it checked over.

I'd love to stay in touch

 

97TA-WS6-Con,

I'd be glad to help.

I PM'd you my contact info.

Madhu

 

Madhu,

I came across this thread by FLUKE but boy does your combo sound similar to mine and DO I NEED YOUR HELP!

I also have the LT1 edit. Since I live in Canada I will be pulling the car out and the first thing I will be doing is a leak down test. I am afraid the current program I have might be to rich and so I think I washed the rings last year....not sure yet!

I am also running 50# MSD injectors, no fmu with a Vortech Supercharger. I have a custom fuel system as per Vortech's design specs with a Walbro in-line pump and a custom 4" exhaust so she can BREATH.

I use pump Gas (94 Octane) and I also have a fuel pressure regulator.

It would be greatly appreciated if you could send me your LT1 Tunes to date and let me know which one seems to work best!

Thanx in advance and it's good to hear someone has a similar car set up!

 

No_Secrets,

What's up man?

Just checked my mail and saw this thread.

I'd be more than glad to help.

My tune is pretty rich but I should be putting it on a dyno soon and seeing if i can raise the hp just a little bit

Email me and we'll talk.

Madhu

 

Sorry

I cannot help anymore guys.

I never really got a good LT1 Edit tune fixed up and now I have a FAST.

WAYYYYYYYY easier to tune with the FAST

 

Madhu,

Let's compare notes..........like you I will be taking my car to the dyno to try and make more hp but also try to get an optimum tune.

I will e-mail you privately and we can chat!
