I may be more inclined to change to an LSx ECM and get all the benefits of newer tecnology.

This code will operate a 4, 6, or 8 cylinder engine in either tbi or pfi mode, just depends on a few mods or the proper memcal. Going to the LSx computer opens up a whole new can of worms, especially when dealing with the crank sensors and pattern wheels. There are adapters out there, but they are quite expensive.

So far the temps around where I live have been in the teens and the car has started up without issue. Runs a little rich once started but idle is smooth and does not hunt around like the original computer did. Keep in mind that I have the cold start injector disconnected. I drove to Steamboat Springs and back today and was able to attain 33 MPG at 65 in the mountains up to 10K feet. 125 Miles with that milage seems pretty darned good to me, especially with a 4 speed Muncie. Anyone who has been to Steamboat knows that highway 40 going east there is about a 7 mile climb at about a 7% or more grade. Now I just need to get cruise installed.

Are you using a wide band O2 sensor to run the computer now? If so what were the modifications to do that? I don't care to have another gauge on my dash but if I could buy a sensor and read it with my scanner or tunerpro that would be something I would be interested in. Are wide bands heated?

I do have a wideband installed.I have it sending both wideband and narrowband signals to the computer just for grins. The only mod needed is a wideband controller tied into the computer through the ecm connector. As long as the controller sends out a linear voltage signal, it is compatible with this code and ecu. The narrowband is wired as normal for a 7165 ecu. The wideband data is sent out to tunerpro so no gauges needed.
Yes, wideband sensors are heated. They will not function correctly if they are not. The wideband controller is able to sense the temp of the sensor and keeps the temo within a certain range. Wideband sensors can even be installed in the tailpipe far away from the engine and still function.

Are there any issues with the computer looking for crosscounts? Maybe wide bands work on crosscounts also, I have no idea.

The computer does look for crosscounts on the narrowband side of life. The wideband controller I use outouts a simulated narrowband signal that I feed to the narrowband input on the ecu. As far as it knows, the signal that is sent to the narrow side is from a normal o2 sensor. The wideband signal is a different part of the computer logic and does not look for crosscounts.

huh? this is possible? how?

I didn't read that part of the thread, but a company makes a 7730 kit to do just that..

I've been tuning my "tow rig" with one of there '747 versions.

The P4 flash tunes through the ALDL?
I have the "regular" EBL Flash and it definitely requires a separate "phone" cable to flash.[This message has been edited by KurtAKX (edited 10-20-2011).]
