Can you get to the idle adaptive constants ?

not sure about ls1edit but if you have a base running airflow table, i would increase those numbers alittle at a time, as i use hptuners, i log my desired running airflow vrs ect. and then plug those numbers into my base running airflow, to start off, then play with the best timing to get it to idle right without surging.

Well, there's a post on efilive.com by SSpdDmon that adresses modifications to tables to help correct surge. There's also a post recently where someone bumped timing in the lowest three rpm cells to 35*, 30*, and 25* respectively.

I'm new to all of this but I had a serious surging problem and stalling and flashing these table modifications all but eliminated my problems.

Part of the problem is that cam will probably like to idle around 850rpm. 750 might just be too low. Check my thread out in the tutorial section of the EFILive forums and also the sticky at the top to see if you have the tables I manipulated - mainly the IAC adjuster tables.

your idle is too low 900rpm is more like it, more duration makes the engine not like low rpms because it is not as efficent at that low of an rpm,i think anyways
