I'm sure the new DA tune looks totally different.
Nice to log a good tune on a few shakedown runs, change a few things and call it new. Sorry, I'm always going to assume this is the Kennedy tune that you guys are adjusting.LB7: 11.54 @ 118 mph first runs on new motor

Isn't the map feature of EFILive just great!I'm sure the new DA tune looks totally different.
the mains were all set at .025. Valve lash was set to .0112 according to valve clearence... I forgot what I clearenced them at. I wrote it all inside the valve cover with a marker so it could be referenced again.

Actually we didn't use the map feature. The only thing we looked at was max PW and timing since the previous owner didn't seem too sure of the injector size. We took the tune that used to be on the truck and modded it for the dual fuelers and injectors - it ran .13 faster at 2 more mph - still needs more tweaks but it'll get there. Hope to get it much closer to the 6s in the 1/8 with some weight reduction, my cheater slicks and some more tuning.
We'll get some rolling burnout videos as soon as I see Chris and we have the video cam. Although that is completely irrelevant to what this thread was originally about.
You guys are funny...... so who's tune are you gonna try to say is in the LBZ since there isn't one in the country that fast - even when people put them on drag radials and have an intake and down-pipe. :rofl: We must have one little secret that we add to other people's tunes to make them run faster, huh???

ok so how about this ill send you a stock ecm you guys can flash. send it to me and ill go test it at the track. and see where you guys trueley stand. I will test it back to back with my current ecm and yours and completley stock. you willing to take the challange?
Guys, keep in mind this a drag racing area.
I like hearing about other people's results, regardless of who's parts are on the truck.
It's Dmax vs. Dodge/Ford, not Dmax vs. Dmax here.

this thread is worthless without video. My freaking built motor twin turbo'd dmax wont even do that on a dry road.
Or maybe DA tuning is 'that' good.
Actually Ben, I was in Wendy and it does the same thing with new tires on
It was pretty freaking cool also Dales truck did the same with 35`mts but there could of been because the roads where dirty on his truck
Pat
He did say it was the fastest in the country and Tommy disagrees. That makes it Dmax vs Dmax. Besides it's to his advantage to send Tommy the tune because if it does what he says it does, he will sell a bunch of them.
I know dustin is playing with some LMM tunes now for some people. I would be very interested in the results of this as well. Might take a few trial and errors of sending it back and forth to get it dialed in. I know I'm on tweak 7 or 8 from the original LBZ tune he made last spring. And I'm gunna run my truck on sunday with the New S&B and Diamond Eye and see If I can't get a 12.3x.
As for the rolling burn outs I know its b/c of the VVT and how ridiculously fast they can spool.
It sounds good! Only one problem... we don't have a track proven LMM tune (just judging by your sig.) All our LMM's are rolling around on 35's or don't have a built trans....Now we are willing to take the challenge from someone with a worthy LBZ (built trans, lift pump, fprv shim) thats all that is done to that truck. Provide us a computer and we will provide the tune. I'm sure everyone wants to see how this turns out.

Only problem is you will have to remove everything out of your truck minus the drivers seat and it wouldnt hurt to take off your bumpers also to achieve these times. I have seen how these boys run at the drag strip:rofl:
back seat and pass seat is the only thing I pull b/c I can do it in less then 5 minutes... I've never pulled my Bumpers and when I ran the 12.60 nothing was touched, all seats in place.
5mins hugh i cant even get my back seat out with 2 people in 5 mins
my truck is basicly now a lbz the tuneing shouldent be all tht diffrent.
If nobody steps up with an LBZ we will take you up on the LMM - because like you said a de-emmissioned LMM is basically an LBZ.
Travis has seen me at the track once - when I was removing my bumper to put the roll-pan on. Chris has his full bumper and hitch and runs on street tires.
Cordless impact, 15mm socket, 11mm socket, 18mm socket, universal joint and extension and I will have a set of seats out of an extended cab in 5 minutes. Not sure on the crew cab's rear seat since I have never talked Winston into taking any seats out. We took out his toolbox and took the tailgate off for both nights at the track this week and the spare tire has been off forever - that's it for weight reduction on Winston's truck.
Sniffle, Sniffle - you sound like a Ford owner Travis.... "but he is lighter".:baby::hug:

Normally I'd offer to let you borrow a shovel, but the hole you're digging seems to be growing just fine without it
I'll volunteer mine, just gotta do the shim...I can send an ECM...
Mine weighs between 7400-7500 in street/race trim and I won't remove any weight...
What do you guys think?
