Anyone know what settings should be used for torque management???

I think someone told me that they turned off torque mgmt.

We did get the LT1 running today. Here is the video, all 16mb of it. Click for video.



Worth mentioning:
- still in development
- 2002 f-body calibration in 12200411 LS1 PCM (modified with LT1 fuel table)
- no optispark, it is 100% gone!
- crank signal from within 96-97 LT1 timing cover
- cam signal from within 96-97 LT1 timing cover
- stay tuned

Unknown:
- availability

Mike, is the LT1 and SBC same timing cover pattern?
I've never been into LT1 engines, even though I run LT1/LT4 cams in SBC Gen1 engines.

Completely different.

I guess the pickup is in same location or do you have to rotate reluctor ring to correct angle.

[S10Wildside]

the reluctor can not be rotated due to the keyway in the crank. Actually the Vortec 4x ring and LT1 4x ring are the same GM part number. .

That's really good info to know.
A lot of the LT1 stuff was re-used in the Vortec and Ramjet tech.
The cast iron head and big car cams are also basically same.

The 24x crankshaft reluctors for the small-block Chevy and LT1 are now available. The cam sensor housing and target for the LT1 should be ready very early 2009.
