We have lots of local folks here, used to work with a nice guy who knew his stuff, not sure if he ever turned it into a business but he was a good employee at L3 with me. Sent you a link in Facebook messenger. Might be worth a communication to see what his thoughts are Emmerich LsX tuning Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
There is a guy based out of Tampa, FL that does all kinds of tuning with LS engines. Has a pretty popular youtoob channel with a bunch of hijinks, but seems to know his stuff. He put a blower on his wife’s Escalade... then blew it up (sorta).Fasterproms is the channel.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Overtightened knock sensors will be oversensitive. Could try loosening them. That being said, you shouldn't be hearing your lifters.(all 16 making noise?) Something is wrong. You have 60psi + oil pressure revved up, 20+ at an idle?
Good to hear. I still think Ken is onto something. If you didn’t torque them on dry clean threads I’d start there. If they are a binary device then not sure how to tune them less sensitiveSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Don, with all brotherly love, I’m saying this. Go find a shop with a dyno and tuner and let them sort it out all at once. The back and forth is killing your time and money. I’d still think long and hard about pulling the intake and reinstalling the knock sensors like Ken said as well. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
Don, I bet EFI can unlock that for you. \The tuner owns the tunes, you own the device.
You can always come to Texas and stay at my place while they work on your truck. Jus saying. It’s like a camping trip. We can work with the pre rangers on shooting and moving. Who knows,maybe even Ash will come out of hiding Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
You had better make a video of the dyno and keep the max out of the mall lots for hell sakes. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Thanks Nick for intro'ing yourself.Plan will be to get the Burb into your hands, hopefully this week, then write about the process. I'll video the dyno time, assuming there is some and document results. All of this will be a baseline then in time, likely less than a year, modify the truck by turbocharging and start making some good usable towing power for the thing.The best thing about this "reconnection" is how I think it will serve to unmask the tuning side of things which will point to the honest brokers like Nick that people like RedNeck were pushing me toward all along.
In case you needed a nudge, Don....these things do work REALLY well and bolt right onto your Suburban. All that torque is exactly what a truck needs.
