Default 4L80E tune with Holley Dominator software?

I was wondering if anyone here has some advice on a base tune I can punch into my Holley software to run my Jake's stage 3 4L80E trans? I know the engine parameters will eventually fine tune themselves, but I am concerned about what I need to do to make the trans work and how to adjust/activate things like shift points and the transbrake.

Holleys help files, are basically their user manuals online. There is no one size fits all, and it sounds like your new to tuning. The engine side won't "fine tune itself". It can keep itself from hanging the rods out if it is setup correctly, but will not optimize its tune itself.

If your new to this, they have a global folder with basic tunes and transmissions to get you started. Their system has amazing abilities, and IMO is the best out there for the $,

Definitely new to tuning with a computer. I am an old school carb and distributor guy. Lol

I have only brushed through the Holley program so far. Are you saying in the Holley program files they have a folder that instals basic functions when chosen or do they also have a bin file repository like HP tuners online also?

Thank you for the reply.

Another place to look is here http://forums.holley.com/forumdispla...Dominator-EFI&

I'm also working on a project using the Dominator ECU but I'm not as far along as you yet
