Ive heard most people who were running stock and got a WB say the stock commanded PE is almost right on.

But that dosent mean it always is.

I run my truck at about 12.4-12.7 so you should be safe with about 12.5 which is all youll want.

I havent noticed much at all from tuning but since I have no dyno I can't see if im making any more power with my timing.

The 6.0 HD's timing is really low and they don't really even go into PE. I don't think they do at least. So make sure you get the PE dealy mode off and you can base your timing from the optimal timing table if you need an example.

I have a 4.2L I6 without a WBO2 (yet), and have played with the spark tables (watch KR pid) and VE tables (CAI, plus to get the LTFTs in check). Biggest change is in the trans with 0 TM all around, shifts are positive and force the truck forward instead of settling down for a sec.
