Default Base map tuning Newbie tuner

I am doing an engine swap Gen3 E38 PCM, Chev Lumina SS ( Pontiac G8)

Have swopped from stock 6l L98 to a Warhawk Ls7x.

First off which initial settings need to be changed in the PCM to get her to fire up with the new 7l?

Secondly the stock cylinder volume is set as 0.75l, a 7.0l Camaro has a value of 0.875l. If I use the online calculators to calculate volume based on pistons, cylinder vol, heads and gasket I get a value of .8952l. Would it be correct to use this value and does it make a difference to PCM calculations.

Does this value effectively make my motor a 7.16l ?

Your asking a very general question here that requires tons of info. How modified is the ls7x your installing. Specs on motor. Are you doing larger injectors. Honestly you will probably be money and time ahead if you get a pro tune done.

Yeah, that is not a motor to learn how to tune on IMO.
