Newbie questions about a resto mod I'm building
Hi. I spent my first couple hours on the the laptop yesterday trying to adjust some settings for my new build. I put an LS1 5.3 into an old Malibu with a 4l80etrans. The motor is bored to a 5.7, comp cam, Dart heads, LS2 intake, FAST 102MM TB, Lingenfelter MAF, PSI conversion wiring harness and VCM Suite. I guess my question arises from some chatter I hear occasionally on here about the 4l80e not shifting in this config. oh the PCM is a 2001 1/2 ton truck PCM. Running the lousy OS I hear people saying is junk. So there is an option in the Trans section to pick 4l80e trans. My main question is will I have that issue where it doesn't shift? Should I change to a 3/4 ton tune and tweak that? I have a p0740 and p0785 code on the PCM now. But I downloaded a 3/4 ton tune and I see that those DTCs are turned off in it so maybe I just need to follow suite. What does a segment swap do? Is that something that i can't match by simply comparing and matching settings between my tune and the 3/4 ton tune?
Oh also I wanna do the MAF (RTT) enhanced upgrade. Does that change anything here about the 4l80e? It appears to be a whole new OS. Thanks and this is my very first post so I am trying to read and learn but I am like a little kid when it comes to this stuff and I get all anxious to play.
