Just bought a 96 Dually with a 454 vortec. Im looking to cut the cat(or cats) and run a true dual setup. What is needed to do this to get rid of the rear o2 sensor? Would be willing to go with a tuning soft ware id so. We have HP tuners for f bodies and tuner cats for OBD1 fbodies, Im sure one of these wont do it.
Thanks

Used to be tuner cats did it, but then they sold out that part of there software to Jet. There the only ones who do the older Vortec stuff.

Yep,not a user friendly software either.LOL
If hptuners or efilive is hard for some then tunercat or jet is alot worse.I promise

yup like wheatley said tunercats was good for the older vortecs but it is a pita if you dont know tunning.

I think that there are still people selling some ever on tunercats site but it may be hit or miss.

Can those '96 engines be upgraded with like a '98 vortec pcm?

If you are goin to upgraded,then go with the 0411 PCM which is 01-02

You will need to buy a definition file from Tunercat for 79.95.
