HP Tuners needs to happen for the LT1
I know of a guy offering boxes that will integrate a wideband into Datamaster and display the AFR as the oil temp 134degrees being 13.4AFR for example this is using a Innovate wideband with programmable output which is actually rather inexpensive and has the ability to recalibrate.. They are still working out some fine details but I plan to get one.

That is your opinion
I own many different versions of each
While HPT is a GREAT product I do not see them wasting there time in a dieing market LT1-Edit, LT1 OBD-II edit, LS1-Edit, HPT and Tune Cats(ALL Available) here along with a Datamaster, MX-Scan, the original LT1 Edit scan Prog, LC-1, LM-1 and a Wide band Commander

i've actually started to see a slight increase in aftermarket parts for the LT1, its just not as popular as LS1 because of the LS1's new tech. but there is a ton of people still in the market for LT1, its just under rated and under credited. for the price of a ls1 you can have a nicely modded LT1, just my .02

Verdad Gallardo I think the reason you are seeing a surge in LT1 stuff is most companies have a good LS1 product base developed and turned some attention back our way. I do not think it is because of the popularity of the LT1 or anything just that they need to keep developing parts and finally the LS1 thing was supported well enough they could look at the forgotten middle child again.

It is a b-body guy and that is where his focus is BUT the box is programmable and you could probably just find some other unused input. AC temp for instance might work.
I know this guy developed it to log fuel pressure, the wideband thing just sprung out of a friend's interest and obviously there are a lot of folks who want to log wideband info.

There was a thread on it just in the days leading up too the big shutdown for the software change.
Gerry and I have been going back and forth since winter on this he is helping another one of our neighbors to the north with this project.
In the meantime I have been just logging with no other input and no rpm to go along, my tune is not perfect but is pretty good considering, once I have the WB info logged in datamaster we can figure out what RPMs it is getting a little extra rich at and smooth out the AFR graph.

okay i must have not seen that thread. I need to get some time to use Spartus's Wideband. Hopefully I'll figure out how accurate the stock 02s are*Arent*. of course I still need to diagnose what the hell is up with my car in open loop after long sits (8hrs+).
