    There is more data on 'longer drive to work' and it looks like its using the vehicle O2 sensors?
    Then there is the 'long drive to work' and are you using a wideband for that log?

    Me, i use the vehicle O2 sensors and try to get the 3500prm and below VE set so its not rich nor is it lean. This is step 1 for me.
    Then step 2 is doing the same for the MAF.
    I don't do any WOT until those are pretty close to where they should be.

    Currently you have some pretty good lean spots that need fuel added, and the circle showss an entire area that we dont know whats happening there.

    So, to recap, you stated in your 1st post youre still new to tuning, thats why i wanted to verify so were all on the same page.
    I have an MVPI3 and I am trying to tune following Goat rope garages video called GEN 3 speed density tuning. In this he goes over how to force the car to only run on the VE table and not the 02 sensors or the MAF which I followed and then he says to Tune your VE table from there using a wideband sensor and the AFR err table which is what I have been trying to do.

    Ill attach here the updated tune file as well as the same "long drive to work log" which would be the corresponding log for that tune. Please let me know if I didn't answer anything. Thanks.

    Most of the more experienced tuners on here use the fuel trims/narrow band o2's to tune everything but WOT.

    that doesn't matter.. what happens under WOT is what we need to know

    I tune ol wideband and have fuel trims -3 to 0 every time. Ive noticed on cams the switching voltage needs to be lowered to bring the trims back in line with what the wideband reports. A 200k mile set of narrowbands vs my afr500v2 with a calibrated ntk 24301 sensor.

    cool story bro

    lets see those trims when them 200k NBs are put back into action

    -but, if you don't have anything to add to the OPs thread, save the cool guy stories for the porta john walls

    Ive been following this thread as I am also trying to get an Lt1 with a 411 swap tuned! How is your progress going? I'd be able to share my tune as well. I think a very important step is having the correct injector data flow rate per kpa

    Agreed.

    Hey to a fellow Gen-2 oddball. It may be best practice on this site to ALWAYS identify that you're not tuning an LS engine. Alvin is one of the few that knows us.
    Something like this:
    Warning: Frankenstein!!!! A GM Gen III PCM talking to a GM Gen-2 engine, Oh My!

    Few things I see in the last tune:
    Injector data don't look right for a stock LT1; IFR should be 24.9 and Voltage offsets are wrong.
    Cylinder volume is smaller than a stock LT1; should be 717.25 ml/Cyl
    Airflow: It looks like both the MAF and VE are too high, esp. at idle and cruise.
    OL EQ ratio is all over the place, like stock. You're aiming at a moving target.

    Also, you can tune VE and MAF at the same time using Dynamic Air and use STFT. The reason people like using the NBO2's is because they're accurate at Stoich, and your goal should be Stoich until you get to WOT.
    Don't worry about transients until after the VE and MAF are calibrated. That's in one table under fuel transients. You'll likely never get rid of the momentary lean spike, but you should knock it down fast.

    Um, I'm pretty sure he announced in the OP that it was a 94 LT1.

    You've never tuned an LT1 24X setup so you probably should just listen for now.

    I have to say i have been using trims for tuning along with a wideband for pe. I am needing a lot less revisions to get a tune dialed in. Cant comment on any difference noticed while driving but makes my job easier since its been high demand. Using the same bank for stft and wb error as well. Ive even turned ltft back on recently on a couple daily driver vehicles.
