Post up your timing maps
So as I messed with the tune on my nova (365" ls3 heads,ljms cam, s475) . Anyway I was having trouble getting it to idle decent and finally found it likes 10-12° of timing at idle and a bit on the rich side. , I also had a stumble from a dead stop....which I think was also a timing issue. Once i get above 3k in booost there is zero issues timing ramps from roughly 22° @ 100 kpa down to 12°
Curious to see everyone else's, maps especially off idle part throttle and cruise stuff....

I'm running a Holley system so I'm not 100% sure how well it crosses over, My idle timing is 14* but have read that depending on cam that some LS3 headed engines go as low as 5* at idle. My car idles at 750rpm warm so I ramp timing up to 22* at 900rpm and it's pretty smooth, I'm also running a 6-speed so that may also make a difference.
It could also be your tune, I had to lean out the fuel slightly at idle or the motor would stumble at throttle tip in.

It was raining so I didn't get to drive but prior to this I had a help of a off idle light load stumble

I have not.....that being said been in boost a ton(12lbs).....doesnt seem to have any issues in boost. It is a stock crank so I couldn't imagine it being off that far....?
I will check/ verify tho to be sure.

Well I spent 3 hrs on mine last night and settled at 12.9° at 850 rpm 13.8afr.....any more or less timing/fuel idle quality goes away......lowering my idle timing also cured all my idle-3k stumbles. It seems pretty happy now.

the holley uses kpa for timing
fast xfi uses kpa
0411 uses g/cyl
my evo uses 'load'
Why do oem ecus seem to use some calculated form of load value but stanalones use map for timing?
It makes it difficult to compare timing maps unless you use a standalone.

That's because some are speed density, and some use those silly airflow meters
And some do strange things
And OEM will often use a lot more, and have many fallback options should the main load metering device have a problem or fail.

If you look at Badass68's timing table you'll see that he has timing the same throughout his idle area, This helps keep the idle stable. If your good as is you might not need to change anything on yours but if it's still hunting idle more than you'd like you can smooth out the surrounding cells and see if that helps.

Here is my table when I first started my tune, LSA supercharged LY6 LS9 Cam, Flexfuel so I have additional 1D Tables setup to adjust fuel and timing according to ethanol content. There have been some changes but nothing drastic. The one thing that stands out between my table and Badass68's is my timing at low rpm/boost, My boost comes on low/fast with the LSA supercharger so I choose to pull a shitload of timing if I lug it in the lower rpms. They aren't quite this low on the tune that's in the truck now but not to far off. I'm only running 10lbs of boost so anything above that can be ignored. This is also 93 tune not E85, Going from 93 to E85 I have a table that adds timing according to E content.
