    Default Seeking Base Tune - 03Z with LS2 402 / V3Ti

    My LS6 ate a lifter and cracked the block, so I had an LS2 402 built which I am picking up this weekend.

    This is a 58x build, so I believe I will need to use the LPE signal conversion box for cam and crank position sensors. I'll be mounting the knock sensors (LS1 style) to the block exterior.

    It's a simple street build.
    402 @ ~10.5:1
    Arun Jam Cam
    LS7 TB w/ harness adapter
    FAST 92
    (not sure which MAP sensor is on this car currently)
    Siemens Deka #60 injectors
    no MAF
    and a V3Ti w/ 3.8" pulley for now

    Any help getting it started would be appreciated.

    Will your engine builder tune your PCM...? He will run the engine on his dyno, get him to run your PCM (and the LPE CKP/CMP converter).

    No, he is a pro machinist who has been building race engines for years for various track sports. I have a few tuners near me of great experience for dialing it in tightly. For now, a functional idle will suffice. In the long run I don't know if I will stick to factory ecu or one of the aftermarket units.

    TRG for the win... works rather well.

    Figured it out after, lol.

    Any suggestions on places to look for an approximate base tune to get the car to idle?
