FYI, pretty much all of the pressure and temperature sensors can be customized. For example, you can also use pretty much whatever MAP sensor you want, so long as it produces a 0-5V output. It is easier to either use the standard GM parts or Holley's sensors, since they've got presets for all of those, but you are not limited to that.

Been trying to read a lot of the posts and maybe this question has been answered, but are any of the Holley EFI ECU's easy to swap the factory ecu with an F-Body? I ask because a local shop The Shop Inc here in Lincoln Nebraska has done MS3 Pro swaps on f-bodies (Sketchy Vert) and is able the run the factory gauges and basically car behaves like it has the factory ecu still. Where I've seen other ecu swaps and have to rely 100% on the little screens.
Would love to get away from HP Tuners and have a much better system.

You can do it with the Dominator and a good bit of time into custom tuning/wiring.

Just thought i would share.
This last weekend I wired up my rebuilt LS1 swap. This setup is so easy, anyone could do it. I cranked without fuel to prime the oil, and then let the fuel pump prime. On my first try to fire it started almost instantly. I am very impressed, especially for a decently aggressive cam. (231/234 .640/.590 112 LSA).Found idle right away and AFRs were not far off.

I'm still loving my setup. I have a couple hundred miles on it now, and the fuel is dial in great. I've smoothed the spark tables, and have the transmission shifting good too, now. Very impressed with this setup and how easy and straightforward it is.

I've had a pretty busy summer, but this afternoon I made part 3 video for the Terminator X software. In this video I discuss some considerations that should be kept in mind when scaling the load and the RPM axes for the fuel and spark tables.

That's a good point about axis rescaling, especially since I don't believe that there is any similar functionality in HPTuners--if you pick an OS that is set up for a two or three-bar MAP, you're stuck with whatever it gives you, which can result in a pretty bad loss of resolution. It is good that the Holley software allows for that in a lot of places, and it is much closer to what I am used to with Ford EEC-IV/V stuff.

Quick question about the alternator wiring.
so from what i see it needs a 12v source?
i have in my car whats called an ARC8000 switch panel which has 12v fuse and a relay can i just get the power from there?
