What do number of cylinders do and injector constants do???

Every .bin file I've seen so far has the number of cylinders set equal to zero (including my own). How does this affect the performance of the PROM?? Should I change it to 8?? Also, does changing the injector constant have an effect on your VE tables?? If so, how is it affected when you change it?? Thanks in advance.

The number of cylinders should be set to zero.

This is a value that tells the ECM the number of cylinders. The following values should be used:

# Cylinders --- Cal Value
3 -------------------- 96
4 ------------------- 128
6 ------------------- 192
8 -------------------- 0

Setting this number to zero means you have 8 cylinders. Do NOT mess with this!!

Yes changing the injector constant has a huge effect on the VE tables. Raising the injector constant will lean out the mixture, which raises the BLM. Lowering the injector constant will richen the mixture, which lowers the BLM.

If you are running rich or lean across the whole rpm span you should raise or lower the injector constant accordingly before you start working the VE tables. The Injector constant can be used as coarse fuel adjustment.
