    Set up for increased displacement?

    Hi all - my LS7 in my 2009 Z06 failed late last year.

    I`m just about to start assembly of my new HPR 468cid shortblock and flowed heads.

    Q - What base settings should be changed to account for the 10% increase in displacement? I`m aware of the cylinder volume parameter, are there any others? Anything in the idle section I should do in advance?

    I had mapped the car prior to failure (not related!!) and so have a known baseline.

    I will be starting with std MAF sensor still and the standard throttle body.

    Thanks all.

    I just went through a rebuild with more CI and bigger cam.. Bump your idle upto 1000-1200 while doing your maf and speed density..

    Also under Idle>Airflow
    You may need to double the Percent Max values.

    There a many. Use math. Your displacement changed by a certain percent. Use that percent change on all of the tables that are air FLOW based. Example base idle air. Used this to fix a tune for a stroked LS9. Works perfectly.
