What do they mean?

Can somebody post some sort of "terminology or legend" for those acronyms most commonly used? I'm talking about 6E, $32, AFR, BLM/INT, mumbo jumbo etc
Thanks, Rick

Well $6E, $8D, $32B and codes like that are different "calibrations" for the different years and ECMs found in our F-Bodies. For example, you'll see $6E used in 89 305/350TPI F-Bodies ONLY. $32B would be found in 87-88 305/350 TPI F-Bodies. $8D calibrations can only be found in 90-92 TPI F-Bodies... etc.

AFR would stand for Air/Fuel Ratio

BLM is Block Learn Multiplier

Maybe someone has a list with all the acronyms, because this could get pretty long. LOL Just ask when you see one and I'm sure someone will clear it up for ya.

Check this out, for acronyms.

also if you goto the tuner cat web site in teh FAQ section, there is a lot if great information that made all these numbers make a lot more sense to me. i wrote a small document that has basically this information (mostly just stole it from the tuner cat site), but have yet to post it onto my site.

Blade, I didn't know there would be so many acronyms.

CYA = Cover Your ***
