Getting ready to od cam swap... trying to get all of my ducks in a row...

[AddictedPS]

Hey Ya'll! I have been doing very basic tuning for the past couple years... (Tire size, gear ratio, vats, Fans, etc...) I am getting ready to do a truck norris cam in the LS1 in my 98 S-10. Currently it is a LS1 / 5 speed but I will be swapping in a 4L60 soon. I guess the first thing to ask is would the group here be willing to help me with the tuning of the truck? (It just kills me to spend $600 on a tune... Especially when I have HP Tuners and its already unlocked. although it should be right when finished.) Also, What would need to change in the tune between auto and 5 speed ? It says to make sure and upload tune files. (I have done a lot of editing on the fuel gauge table to get it accurate...) Please Don't roast me too bad...

Normally I would say that the first step would be to get a file originally set up for a 4l60, but it appears the one you are running is such. This leaves the possible need to compare it to a file that was not changed to run a manual trans, and maybe re-enabling some auto trans DTCs or other settings. After the cam swap, consult the guides here on how to adjust accordingly. I am sure you will have some wiring issues to deal with, but that will depend on what harness you are using.

Currently it is a LS1..

Is that the stock LS1 timing table or has it been modified?

I started with a 2006 avalanche 5.3 ecm downloaded a 2000 Corvette tune from the repository and copied over everything (I think I got it all) I have put about 20,000 miles on the truck so far... It runs great. the only issue I have is that at crusing at appx 2100 rpm it throws a misfire code... If I accelerate just a little it goes away till I start to cruise again I have about 4 or 5 tune files from my tuning process... (I still have the stock tune file if that is where I should start) Thanks for any help...
