mobythevan Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 I searched over on the MS forum and it looks like its possible but not confirmed yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Cramer Posted June 13, 2007 Share Posted June 13, 2007 That's where it stands with the current MS2/Extra code. There is one user who has built a special circuit board that let him get the MSnS-E code to work: http://www.msruns.com/viewtopic.php?t=22474 The upcoming 029Z code is planned to work with the LS1, too, but is not out yet.

mobythevan Posted June 13, 2007 Author Share Posted June 13, 2007 I also found this on ls1tech: http://www.ls1tech.com/forums/showthread.php?t=670015&highlight=megasquirt it appears he is running fuel only and modified the code to use the falling edge trigger. There is really no description in the thread about MS setup, but by running fuel only he gets away without needing the second cam input and 4 coil drivers.

mobythevan Posted June 13, 2007 Author Share Posted June 13, 2007 Wow, perfect timing to put megasquirt on the LS1. 029y3 code was released beta yesterday and it supports the rising and falling edges for the cam input. Here are the fruits of my research: MS1 and MS2 will run the LS1 in wasted spark mode. Use 2 tach inputs just like I do with my 4G63 in the talon(except set second trigger to rising and falling edge). Instructions are at DIY for the talon tach input mods. Proven to work great on my talon. Use 4 spark outputs (LED circuits for 3) and output3 for the last one. These DO NOT need to be VB921's because the LS1 coil packs have an ingnition amp built into each one. So normal LED transistor circuit should work fine (we'll see). Seems straight forward, so I think I am locked in to go that route, see below for my reasoning. If no one has any gotchas by tomorrow I'll get a kit on order from Matt and get cracking. NOTE: I am not using megasquirt because I don't want to use the stock PCM, it is because hptuners is $500, I am missing MAP, MAF and IAC which would be another $150-$180. And then I have to muck with all the weird features like VATS, dual O2 sensors, EVAP, etc. Just buy an old v2.2 MS1 for $140 and be on my way. It what I am comfortable with and know inside and out.

proxlamus© Posted June 13, 2007 Share Posted June 13, 2007 oh the irony. and perfect timing. I am considering doing this I was lookn yesterday and some guy used EDIS 8 on his LS1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mobythevan Posted June 13, 2007 Author Share Posted June 13, 2007 tired of the L6 huh, LS1 is going in?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
proxlamus© Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 uh yeh.. the L6 is driving me insane.. and is NOT very daily driver friendly.. not with my mods. plus 350rwhp is hard to achieve.. the LS2 for example is 400hp alone. whoo whoo Im subscribing to this thread Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CantZme Posted June 14, 2007 Share Posted June 14, 2007 damn, L6's are getting tossed everywhere I look... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mobythevan Posted June 14, 2007 Author Share Posted June 14, 2007 Just wanted to link the two threads from msefi All the work was already done, now its just up to us to verify there are no bugs. http://www.msextra.com/viewtopic.php?t=23881 http://www.msextra.com/viewtopic.php?p=161308 This was a partial quote from DaveW in reference to the LS1: "engine that could have been designed with MS in mind (logic level cam/crank, logic level CoP units, GM air and coolant sensors)" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
