With the ability to add tables and such with the CAX files, is there anyone out there with intimate knowledge of the 3rd and 4th gen Allison TCMs that might be able and willing to make a CAX file or two for me?

Mick how about a "how to summary" for techno types to give a basic heads up on whats involved to create the cax. Looks like you specifiy offsets in the bin files and valid values they can be changed to etc?

Im guessing knowledge of what tables are in what offsets with what values is the hardbit..

In looking at the CAX files that have been posted, it seems that the info placed in the file is the address(es) of the function you want to add. The biggest problem is knowing what the address is for the function you have in mind.

Correct with that one. Basically Ross and others like him are the ones who do all the "HARD WORK" and deserve all the credit for the support you have.

In the .cax files I use a different range of methods, which I call "BLACK MAGIC". This is the source of all evil....:) Sorry but there are some things I can't talk about as I want this to continue. I will help as much as I can.

Study the first section of the .cax files with the instructions that Paul has included, this is your bread and butter. Know them well. Play with there settings and compare the results.

I have used the EFILive .exe over 2000 times I guess in the past 2 weeks and put in over 30 hours. You must put in the time to achieve the result, there are no short cuts. Well there are but thats another story....:)

In the past 5 years I have made many friends all over the world, networking has it's benefits.

Stick with it and you can have some good fun and achieve things that you thought were impossible.

Cheers

Ok I accept the Black Magic bit.
In NZ that phrase has some meaning, whether its relevant in more than one way or not Ill not ask :)

Its all good anyway, carry on Mr Magic.

Good work mate...:cheers:... I can appreciate the Black Magic (it's what engineers resort to when they have exhausted physics)... :cheers:

What about control of release times? Or does the shift timing parameter account for both release and apply times?

I know of a few table that are missing that i would like to tune my self but have no idea where to start looking for addresses. Any advice to get me pointed in the right direction would be more than appreciated!
