Default Predator question

I have an older predator that I bought and have used since 2005 or so. I recently installed new gears, headers, and a torque converter earlier this year. When I did that, I sent of my computer for a mail order tune. I have since gone back to a stock converter and I am going to take off the headers. If I put the predator back on and use it to put back the stock tune, will that work correctly? I would like to put the predator tune back on after that as well.

Assuming the tune you had done did not change any of the calibration IDs, the tool should allow you to restore the stock tune, yes.

So it sounds like if the predator allows me to upload the tune to the car, it will be correct. My biggest worry is that the computer is all messed up after something is uploaded.

No worries.
if it gives an error about not matching the last tune written, then they changed the calibrations and its locked out, if not, it will be fine.
