the signal modifier, leaned the fuel mixture too much, and melted the pistons. It<br />

can be done! After all the time and effort you have put into achieving this stage,<br />

it would be a shame to ruin something because your enthusiasm carried you away and<br />

you tried to tune too fast.<br />

What Is Being Modified<br />

When tuning the EFI setup, the data controlling the fuel mixture and spark timing is<br />

being altered. Each engine type and setup will require a unique set of data to<br />

achieve its ultimate power and efficiency setup. The camshaft, intake manifold,<br />

head design, and exhaust system all influence the torque curve of the engine and<br />

therefore the fuel requirements. The spark advance plays into this also. The following<br />

section discusses the different tables found in some ecm’s.<br />

List Of Tables<br />

Tables, Maps, Switches seen or heard of: Main Fuel (VE or LV8); Fuel Enrichment<br />

WOT; Main Spark (rpm vs. kPa or gms/sec); Spark added WOT Idle Speed; IAC steps (by<br />

cool temp); WOT enable TPS %; TCC lock/unlock by road speed; TCC disable by TPS %;<br />

TPS Enrichment (sensitivity, quantity, duration); Injector constant; AFR % enrichment<br />

vs. Coolant temp; EGR temp enable; EGR enable % TPS; EGR timing correction<br />

table; EGR fuel correction table; Speed limited MPH; RPM Limiter; Degrees retard by<br />

knock sensor by MAP; Degrees retard by knock by rpm (WOT); Turbo Boost Control; All<br />

diagnostic malfunction disables. Not all ECMs use all these tables!!<br />

DISCUSSI<strong>ON</strong> OF TABLES<br />

The following tables are for a 3020 lb. car:<br />

Engine; AL headed (vette 58cc chamber), 355 CID SBC, 9.5:1 CR<br />

Cross fire intake; 2" butterflies, .25" lid spacer 90lb/hr injectors<br />

Cam specs; 270 Comp Cam, .470 lift 270 adv dur, 224 @.050 110 3.42 gears<br />

Tranny; 700R4, 2800 rpm non-lock-up stall<br />

Exhaust; Edelbrock TES manifolds, very low restriction cat, 3"single ex (Walker).<br />

ECM ; GM 1227747 (no internal mods, OEM v-8 netres [a resistor pack])<br />

Some details are not mentioned (gotta keep an edge).<br />
