v6 beginner w/ 3.4+mods (bl85c help?)
(sorry its a bit lengthy)
im really new to this and been reading the crap out of the stuff on here. we all know the search option has gone south, so ive had to read thru a lot of the same stuff. heres where im at.....
ive got a 3.4 stealth swap, 1.52 rockers, Melling MTC-5 cam, 180* t-stat, headers, catback, opened up the intake manifold a bit, MILD head work and opened up the air box, and lots of other lil stuff that i dont think will affect my tune as of now.
Ive taken bl85c's modded bin and made tweaks to it for my own vehicle; removed EGR, manual trans, injector size, etc. what im wondering is, what do i need to change (i dont have a wideband, that will come later) so i can adjust to a 3.4 w/ a '165 ecm from the stock 2.8 ecm? ive changed the injector size, but what do i need to change for the mods ive made... engine, intake, exhaust. im not looking for a perfect tune just yet, but i wanna get a basic idea of the program (TunerPro) and just where to start to improve. i dont think i need to change anything dealing w/ the MAF, IAC, TPS, ESC since its stock right now..... or do i? if ive missed anything, a link will help or whatever you have to offer.

Sorry, I don't spend a lot of time on the diy-prom board. You really shouldn't need to change alot. It might want more fuel on startup so add a little to cranking pw (5% maybe) and you might need to change the startup enrich decay delay a little (need to add it to the xdf). If you don't have a knock sensor yet add one before you swap to the '165. Simple addition and worth the added safety.
