I haven't heard of anyone using it on the LT1 yet. Someone has done it on the LS1, but never posted the details of how they did so.

Add fuel using the PE table. Also inject Methanol.

not really the obd1 94-95 are mass air, the 93 are speed density.

your probably not going to gain much going to speed density on that setup. i ran mass air, and ran an open loop tune in my big cam and head car and had no issues.
