    4.9 (ford 300) I6 conversion

    Hello,
    I am making headway with my education, but it is slow. I am using the gm 1227747, and a hacked bin and xdf file from a chevy 5.0 tbi with non-electric controlled automatic transmission. I don't have an engine built yet, so I am just playing with Tuner-Pro to get used to it. Here is what I have changed so far, let me know if I my intended purpose will be achieved.
    I changed the cylinder numbers to six
    Disabled the egr by maxing out the temp, and putting a zero in the max tps to allow egr on.
    Disabled closed loop (I think) by maxing the closed loop closed tps threshold. (I want an open loop only system, due to o2 sensor foulage problems with leaded fuel)
    Disabled highway cruise by maxing out min coolant temp
    I am guessing that BLM works only in closed loop, so it should be disabled.
    Changed engine start up rpm to 800
    Disabled knock by maxing out min rpm enable

    Trying to figure out Idle RPM in open loop adjustment, all I can find is tps position in park/neutral, and out of park/neutral...

    I also will be getting an affordable fuel injection kit for this engine, so I may be able to read one of their proms and modify it. Not sure if theirs is hacked or not though. Oh what a learning curve, my head hurts...

    I think starting with a 4.3 V6 .bin file might be a better plan than starting with a V8 .bin file.

    I suppose that ignition timing could be an issue with the V8 bin, my thought was the displacement was closer. I'll look at the 4.3.. Thanks.

    I think adding displacement to the V6 .bin file will get you very close.

    Pardon my ignorance, but the only way I see to do this is to modify the base pulse width. Is this correct? I really do appreciate the information you share with me. I'm pretty excited to actually put this plan into motion.

    That is correct. The picture below shows the BPW for a 4.9 liter engine using 61 Lb Chevy 350 TBI injectors.
