    Is there a rear wheel kw number those fatties need to deal with?

    At 275/35/20, PPK calculate out to about 61k.
    i havent had it on the dyno myself, but i believe it made close to 300rwkw.

    With a set of 17" Sv8 wheels and Mickey thompsons it ran a 12.1 last weekend at the perth motorplex with 1.9 -60's. hoping to get down to 1.5, 1.6 with the 3500 stall. but i might swap the diff from my brothers manual to drop the revs down on the highway and to give 1st gear a bit more usefulness.

    I have the files, I have looked at them but can't see anything obvious. I have a VE here that I will be testing on but right now the priority is to get the AutoCal Beta test underway. I will get back to this later in the week.

    The first thing I will try (and feel free to try it now), is to ignore the speedo calculator and put the speedo setting back to stock for that operating system. Then adjust the tire sizes in both the ECM and TCM to match the actual tire size.

    Regards

    Oh man I want one of those rides, looks like the US G8? Id prefer the bowtie badge over the Pontiac one but short of importing on from down under doubt that'll ever happen. Biggest prob is the left hand drive. and money

    There's a bunch of updates for the Allison 6 speed and T43 6 speed, new PIDs (Ali6 and T43), new calibrations (T43 only) in the next update. I was going to release it this weekend but unexpectedly got called out of town for the weekend. I'm back now and I am packaging it up over the next 24 hours. Do a "check for new updates" in about 24 hours time (Monday morning US time) and you should get the update.

    For this next update (and future updates) I am going to put up a web page that lists the updates available so you can see what you're getting before the "Check for Updates" downloads and installs the update.

    Regards
