    Starting Point

    What do you guys use as a starting map? I am asking because i am having a hell of a time with trying to get my engine idling. I used the base tune i grabbed off the existing computer and changed the displacement as well as the injector flow rates and the MAP sensor values. I am still having issues just trying to get it to idle. It idles too lean and dies.
    I am asking this because my computer and nine came out of a 2000 sliverado the computer i have is a 4.8l P01 drive by cable.
    The list of mods to my engine are as follows
    799 Heads
    Stage 2 truck cam .553 lift (212/218 .553/.553 111+0)
    TBSS intake
    36LB hr injectors
    92mm throttle body
    12594942 map sensor.
    Card style MAF sensor 2134222 This goes into a custom alumimum 4" Intake tube.
    4" stroke crank 363 CI Stroker
    10.3:1 CR

    I'm brand new to tuning myself. Your going to need to share your tune file. that way others can look at it and recommend changes.
    I just made a post and blindsquirrel was a big help! He even modified my tune file to match my injector size for me.
