I've been using the TunerCat programmer and have been able to remove all the torque management from my truck 1996 Vortec 383.

I have a few friends that also want to remove it from there LS1 trucks as well...anyone have screen shots on what data needs to be removed?

Here are some Tuner Cat screen shots of my 1996 GMC on what needs to be changed...best to compare them against stock settings as I notice not everything needs to be changed.

I dont have any screen shots, but will give you a link telling how to remove it with ls1edit.

I removed mine with the help of this web page with no problems. Good Luck

 

Good link and info...thanks!

Did you get the balance issue sorted out Ken?

 

going to work on it this weekend...had to get the garage cleaned out on the new house...truck now fits into it...going to pull the TC first then switch out the flexplate...I hope one of these is it!

Also, how would I re-adjust for a gear or tire change is there some kind of calculator out there? How do you base the pulses per mile?

Thanks,
Ken

 

LS1EDIT calculates it for you.
Go to the edit tab
speedometer, then put your gear ratio, and tire hight or size. Then click on the APPLY GEAR AND TIRE SCALE. It will calculate the pulses for you.

 

This would be great but I am using the TunerCat Edit program for our vortec trucks 1996 to 2000 4.3, 5.7 and 7.4L They are working on adding this to the next update...what is the manual way to figure this out?

Ken

 

Don't know how to calculate the pulses per mile manually, but if you pm the specs I will plug the numbers into EDIT and calculate it for you.

 

My truck: 1996 GMC K1500

32.75" tire cir.
