Bitter sweet season opener today. Went easy on the launch to see how the car was going to do. 1st run 10.94 @122 1.48 60ft. 2nd run noticed car was acting weird at the line, launched it anyway and ran a 10.90 @122, car pulled hard right so suspension needs a little work. The DA was just about 100 with a 15 MPH head wind. Went to tweak tune and fried PCM. Figures... With a little suspension tweak and a couple more harder runs would have pulled some 10.8s. Oh well next time.

Are you using LT1 PCM to operate the 4L80E?

I bought a wiring schematic from a fellow member. I think it was slow67? The tuning is just common sense to adjust shift points with the different gear ratios. I just added or subtracted the differences within the tables. Not much to it.

Back to the track today. Another day with head wind between 10 and 22 MPH. DA was about 400 higher than last time. Did a slight AFR adjustment and dropped my time down a bit to 10.87 @ 123. If I could get a better DA and no wind think I can do a 10.7x. Ran four 10.8s, three 10.9s, then the track went away and wind picked up some more so I it called it a day. Put the cap on my cutout turned the radio up and drove home.
