Default Flex Fuel on LS1 Y-Body?
Anyone out there done a flex fuel conversion on an LS1 Y-Body? I did a search but came up dry. Very interested in getting something set up to do so.

Just about any aftermarket ECU can do it. If you get a flex fuel stock ECU, you can do it that way as well. Either way, you should install a flex fuel sensor on your return line to measure ethanol content.

should be fairly easy for you, being 4l60e and N/A, flex fuel capable OS and tunes are common.

If your going boost, then you probably want the Safari van ecm/tune with the blue/green. Its flex fuel with 3 bar capable OS upgrade.
