    After looking through the basics of the .bin and driving the truck I am getting a feel for what needs to be changed.
    Im having some issues running rich.
    I had the truck stall under load at a stop sign (possibly due to running rich).
    Know where I can find a resource for getting advise on how to change spark and fuel parameters and diagnose?
    Also what is ideal for injector bpw?
    I was digging through the constants and saw the cylinder volume was set for a 350.
    I have a 357 and was wondering if I should expect changes if this was altered.

    (PS idle rpm in park and drive seems too low, I haven't made any changes yet).

    Truck runs great other than needing tweaking.

    Dave do you remember what injector setup was used on the bin? size/ pressure?

    Dave,
    It's fair enough to ask those questions.
    I didn't mean to mooch
    You've been more than helpful.
    Didn't know you ran a business.

    The only way to learn what others know is to ask questions.
    Guess I forgot to ask the important one.
    Pm on the way
    Glad we share a time zone.

    Ps the question isn't if it is fair, it's When is it fair. ;)

    Below are a couple links to help adjust the fuel tables.

    http://www.gearhead-efi.com/Fuel-Inj...-data-Tutorial!

    and

    http://www.gearhead-efi.com/Fuel-Inj...D-31-OE-and-E6 I used a similar spreadsheet to crunch the data log in post #31.

    I didn't think you were being a mooch!

    I agree, when is it fair would be appropriate.

    The fuel settings in the .bin file I posted were based the information you provided and my tuning experience. The fuel settings were not based on any specific injector / fuel pressure.

    I figured you had set it up because I HAD done the math.
    I figured 71 was more realistic than the math being 72.
    I just didn't ask the question correctly.
    I just was curious to if there was another (maybe better) way to reach the flow rate to fuel this motor (for the next one).

    Update:
    Re timed the engine,
    and changed cylinder volume
    Engine now runs lean

    Do I factor in engine efficiency into cylinder volume?

    Gonna be working with Dave on getting a chip so I can drive it without stalling.

    Any body have a recommendation on upgrading my alternator.
    Battery light is on under throttle.
    Figured I'd upgrade since it needs replacement
