unlike most mods tuning software grows with your mods rather then growing out of them

Thinking through your mods and tuning with the PCM tables makes you correlate the various parameters with the actual function of your engine.

Just purchase EFILive from Autotap... I finished my swap of an LS1 into my 1986 El Camino and I have been wanting a tuner/scan software for some time. I have been living with the tach reading half scale as the company that made my harness and programmed the PCM couldn't make the tach change at that time I think or it was overlooked I don't remember which.
Well my wife just got a bonus from her work and gave me the money to purchase EFILive Personal so I should see the box Monday April 24th, 2006.
Reading this thread in its entirety I am now wondering exactly what I purchased as the thread talked about V2 coming out soon in March, so will I get V2 with this purchase?
Ever since I read EFILive provides unlimited software updates for life that was what sold me on its purchase.
I do have an issue with my swap as I installed the Corvette Drive-by-wire setup with a TAC box and Corvette pedal, the car is drivable as I drive it daily but my cruise control still doesn't work. I was told all I had to do was hook up the 4 wire stalk switch and brake switch and get instant cruise control. I swapped out the TAC box it didn't fix it, and this was after I voltage checked all the wiring to the TAC connector from the stalk switch and brake switch. My initial though was the PCM cruise control was turned off and I was hoping EFILIve will be able to test this and maybe turn it back ON for me. Now I am thinking that cruise is a TAC independent function and that there must be a simple wiring issue.
So my question is can EFILive read the stalk switch and brake switch inputs to help me troubleshoot my problem?
The first thing I am going to flash is the tach to read properly.

so you'll be getting V1 at this point as far as I know and would have to pay to upgrade to V2 once its released
