    Default cylinder volume

    My cylinder volume is currently set to 41.2. Shouldn't that be different for the 6.0 liter? If so, what should it be?

    I have tuned camaro's with 6.0's in them and never messed with the cyclinder volume and they all run fine.

    Seems though it would affect my truck more since i'm going from 5.3liters instead of 5.7.

    I have seen plenty of cars with bigger motors in them that where tuned and the cylinder volume not changed. Also going from a 5.3 to a 5.7 isnt a very big change. If you tune the truck and get you the ve table dialed in perfect and the spark dialed in how is it going to run better? I think it would probly matter if say you went from a 4 cylinder to a big block.

    My 6.0L has a value of 45.52 for the cylinder volume. I'm not sure what parts of the program use this value but, it couldn't hurt to change it before tuning.

    Maybe someone will chime in who knows when the cylinder volume is used.
