I tune my car with LS1Edit also. You must understand that tuning a new combo (heads/cam/exhaust) is fairly straight forward because your combo is not radical. I start by inputting the correct flow rate of the injectors. If they are the factory stock injectors, then never touch the injector table. First thing I tune is the Idle, then the drive around cruising stuff (for drivibility), then tune the WOT. With your new combo, it should not be too difficult to do. Start with the factory tune and go from there. Get the LTFTs to between +5% and -5% by altering the MAF table. Since you do not have a radical car, always run it in Close Loop. Of course, you must have a scanner to tune, so that you can log many engine functions to get direction which way to go with the fueling and timing.

I have the program loaded on my laptop and i have the connector for the OBD2 so i can run and log while i drive. Can you go into a little more detail about tuning the WOT, idle, drive around crusing stuff. What is LTFT's and how do you alter the MAF table? I know these are alot of questions but i just want it to be somewhat right you know.

Not many people use LS1 Edit any more. I used it long time ago. What logging software do you have? You have to know where you are first before making changes.
Are you driving with heads and cam without any tunning? You are probaly running very rich.

Do a search on tuning or look here:

Every car is a little different. It can be a long learning process of learning to tune.

Good luck.

Bill
