Can someone point me to a resource that actually explains how segment swapping works? I'd prefer something in writing, instead of video format.
When I license a tune, am I licensing the "main...
A number of folks claim it's possible, but have never done it. Quite a few folks say it can't be done. Is there any verifiable situation where someone has enabled VVT where it didn't exist before?
...
We removed the resistor from the circuit, and it didn't make any difference. When the resistor was in the circuit, the signal was very slightly cleaner. My brother said he's played around with...
Some further info--
I cut the tail off the wall wart, verified polarity, and connected that to a car battery. Nothing changed.
My brother is a GM tech, and he brought his GM MDI over to try it...
I've triple-checked my bench harness connections, and I still can't connect to the ECM with HPtuners Scanner or with a common obd2 reader. I'm getting power and ground to all the correct pins on the...
Yeah, I probably am. I was just hoping I could pull a ground wire from the e38 connector, and connect a LED through that.
I ordered the parts needed to make the bench harness. I've got a couple...
Looking over the e38 pinouts, the "check engine" lamp caught my eye. Will this lamp stay illuminated the whole time the ignition is on but the engine is not running?
I'm assembling a bench harness for my e38 ECM. I'd like to incorporate a LED to indicate when the ECM is powered on. It would be simple to just wire the LED into the power switch, but I'd rather if...
#1, the APP is routinely swapped on these builds. The Corvette pedal fits the classic pickups a lot better than the stock Silverado pedals do, so folks routinely switch them. The APP is nothing but...
I'm aiming to do something similar. I'll be starting with a 2014 Camaro ecm, and intend to drive a 2010 5.3 engine. I was told by a very skilled tuner, that the throttle bodies are easily...
Interested in this as well. I'm working with slightly newer stuff, since my components are all in the 2010-2014 range.
I'll be starting out with a 2014 Camaro LS3 e38 from a manual transmission...
Thanks for the suggestion. I'll keep that in mind when the time comes.
I'm confident the 5.3 will be excellent for running around empty. It's the potential trailer weight of 12,000 pounds that has...
Since I'm using stock intake, exhaust, cam, heads, etc, I'm hoping it's going to be better than "close enough." It should be pretty close to factory if done right. I agree that a wideband would be...
I've been afraid of a similar problem, so I'm going a different direction.
I'm using a 5.3 truck engine with a e38 ECM. I'll have that e38 reflashed by a dealer tech to a manual-trans Camaro ls3...
I wasn't thinking about the aluminum engines. It stands to reason those would have the same flow characteristics and tune as their iron-block brothers.
The LH8 does not have VVT, so I'll pass on...
I actually do have a stock 2010 LMG tune, since that's what my donor truck was originally. I deleted the AFM by using a LMF camshaft.
I was hoping to use a LMF tune, so I can start out as nearly...
Interesting. I wonder if there's any more accurate engine lists available, now that I can no longer trust the ones I was using.
So basically, I'm looking for a 2008-2014 6-lug van with a v8...
Wikipedia and OnAllCylinders both list only two applications for the LMF. 2010-14 Express vans with AWD, and 2010-14 Savannah vans with AWD.
What source are you looking at?
I'm in a little bit of a conundrum here. I've assembled a 5.3 engine that is identical to a LMF. Same cam, heads, intake, injectors, etc.
Because of my manual transmission and several other...
One application I have in mind would be 60 hp on a generator, and another would be about 120 on a pump.
I'd like to retain the ability to idle back to 800 rpm for starting and stopping.
On a drive-by-wire engine, Gen 3 or 4, does it hurt to set the rev limiter relatively low(2k to 4k range), and then just block the throttle for all-day operation? Or is there a compromise in doing...
I've got a 2010 LMG(5.3 vortec) engine, e38 ecu, bcm, throttle pedal, harness, accessories, sensors, etc. I've already disposed of the 6l80 transmission and transfer case. I'm intending to run an...
Old thread, but I ran across a tidbit of info in alldata literature.
Evidently, during retained power state, the RAP relay is energized, and can be tested on x5-11. Might be a method of...
No experience with this, but it seems the simplest solution is probably the cheapest and the most DIY. Couldn't a properly rated transistor be used as a relay to flip both injector grounds...
