    Newb Newbington Here.

    Sup everyone. Been gettin dirty under the hood for a long time.

    I've built a few engines in my day, both FI and Carb'd. Even converted an old Cavalier from TBI to MPFI without having to tune it.

    I've got a 1997 K2500HD with a 6.5 Diesel in it, running a custom tune from Heath Diesel. I recently bought a 1995 C2500 Suburban with a 5.7 and I'm ready to start some tuning, especially with the new engine that will be going into it later this year.

    I have no real experience tuning with Tuner Pro RT, but I've been poking around with it a little here and there. Ordering a complete tune setup next week from moates.net... APU1, G1 Adapter and MTX-L wideband O2.

    The Burb currently has an Ultimate modded TBI, and ebay CAI on it, as well as Accel ignition... cap, rotor, coil, wires, and Delco CR43TS plugs at .040

    Full Hooker Dual exhaust will all be here soon, have the mufflers and pipes, just waiting for the long tube headers.

    New engine will be a 30 over 350, ported and polished 193 Swirl port heads, pnp stock intake, 3702 Edelbrock cam and the Hooker exhaust (thats going on very soon anyway).

    I want to learn how to tune now, on the stock engine, before I drop in the fresh engine. I'll be doing a lot of reading here and asking a bunch of questions too, as needed.

    Howdy.

    This sounds familiar.
