Default LS1 Processor?
Anyone know if there is a way we can get to reflash the ECM on LS1's? Anyone know what kind of processor it's using?

Yes, your ecm is a flash type-you plug in a cable from your laptop to load your new file. LS1 edit is the software to change your program-it's supposed to be in the works for release soon if not already. I'm amazed that GM released the code!!!

How would someone go about building a programmer even if you knew let's say the "code". What does the GM code actually do?

Hey isn't this a C4 ECM section? :jester :p:

Actually, when Troy asked me what section it should fall under, my response was:

At first thought, the C4 section is where it would make sense, but then people are swapping TPI setups into sharks and mid-years, so they would also want to learn.... someday LS1 tuning will be much more approachable once it's hacked more.....

I thought about having him put it in the general section, but since most tuning is on C4's I guess it's more at home here!


But all years/efi are welcome here!!!
:D :D :D

GM did not release the code. They would not. This was all reverse engineered in hex editors.

Hmmm, OK, maybe my mistake- I'll have to go recheck it- I beleive it was in GM High Tech that said GM was changing their years long policy on that.

Yes please include LS1s also. As tools like LS1edit become more available we will need experts to explain it all :)
