It looks like I'm going to need a real tune for the swap I just did. I'm still getting the trans slip code, and the engine is pretty flat down low. I can't even break the tires loose from a stop. The 6.0 and cam should allow me to do that I would think. I've got the Jesse Bubb tune, but I think my stock computer would do the same. Can any shop that does Dyno tuning help me out, or do we have to use a Westers, Wait4me and the likes?

Thanks,

Will

 

Were R You From.a Dyno Tune Would Be Your Best Bet.

 

I'm down in Southern Alabama, Dothan area. So, our trucks can be dyno tuned just like an LS1, or does the shop have to have something special for it?

 

you can get a dyno tune but its better to get a street tune first...nelson has a damn good street tune for you application...he is a sponsor to the right>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> >>

 

I've got the Wait4me PCM, but it doesn't seem to be any better than my stocker. That's why I'm thinking a Dyno tune may be the way to go.

 

PM gomer on ls1tech he tunes vehicles in birmingham Mjhoward is going tuesady to get him tune his truck maybe you could get yours tuned at the same time.

Even though its a mail order tune and he is a bit mroe expensive than the others Allen Nelson of Nelson Performance who is a sponsor here knows his **** so if I was goign to go mail order then I would definately get himn to do it my tune was almost dead on when I went to ge thim to retune my truc k for the cam and all the vlavetrain stuff.

 

I'd swap out the 99 PCM for a tuned 02 PCM, if Jesse didn't already do so. The 99-00 PCM's are horrible and prone to false knock...do a search on 99-02 PCM swap and you'll find a wealth of info on the subject. Also, if you re-used your stock injectors, you're gonna want to replace them with something from 00 and up also. 99 injectors only flow 21.7 lb/hr while 00 and up injectors flow 24 lb/hr. Of course if you could find a tuner close by that has the truck software to do a street/dyno tune that would be best.

 

Contact Brian at pcm4less. He sent me an awesome pcm w/ out ever seeing the truck. 375 and 125 is refundable core. any future upgrades are 50.
