I had an LS1 in my S10 but long story short I am now running an 5.3 with a bunch of LS1 parts and I am having some issues with it stalling once in gear. Below is my setup before i start rambling on.
2000 5.3 iron block w/ 46k miles
799 heads w/ TSP dual Valve Springs
custom ground cam 226/232 .600/.600 111 lsa +4
LS6 Intake, ported ls1 tb w/ ls1 injectors
A fresh 4l80e trans w/ a 3,400-3,600 circle d stall converter and 3.73 gears in a ford 8.8
I know you will all say I need to get it tuned I plan on it after I get some street time to make sure all the bugs are worked out. The base tune I started with was from a 2000 silverado with the 4l80e segment swap already done. I have already adjusted the tune for the ls1 injectors which i believe I did correctly. I already used the guide in the how-to section to get it to idle better with the cam https://forum.hptuners.com/showthrea...e-(w-pictures).
I found that the engine will idle without dying with the maf unplugged for obvious reasons, so right now I have the MAF out for now and the wires tucked away. One of the things i noticed in the 5.3 tune is that it's for a DBW TB, should I have used my LS1 tune instead? I already have a ls1 base tune for the ls1 cam I had so I can always jump to that instead. So the the first issue i have is when I put into into drive, i stall pretty much right away.
The other issue is I feel like i have no brakes but if i recall it's because i do not have enough vacuum for the booster to help. I also recently re-did my brake lines, installed a new master cylinder prop valve and also a line lock. I am almost positive that everything is all bled properly too.
