Bumping this back up.
I am still interested in doing something with this.
I turned on the fast idle yesterday right after starting the engine and it really billowed a lot of fuel smoke.
I don't know why this new engine is acting like this, the old one even when it was knocking and had a lot of miles on it, didn't do this.

Dan,

I'll talk to him about this since I sit right across the desk from him now.

I will let you know what I come up with.

Bill says it's entirely possible to fix those EOT/SOI maps in your programs, Dan. I'll get with Corey today and aquire an RMA# for you so you can go to the website and fill out the return form.

OK, but I want to remind you guys that it wasn't the tuning.
My old engine didn't smoke like this before I put the new one in.
It really acts to me like they dropped the compression ratio for some reason.
Maybe to combat NOX emissions, just guessing.
I also want to drop the idle a touch on the tunes. Whenever I switch from stock to any other tune the idle speeds up some and I would like to lower it about 50 rpm across the board.

Cody and Bill. You guys moved a lot faster than I thought you would on this! Kudos.
I got the RMA number in the email.
I have a trip planned in three weeks and I don't think that the shipping back and forth will give us enough time.
I will send it back the last week of May. I don't have any towing plans for a while after I get back then and it will allow plenty of time for all.
Thanks for all this and I will definately do this, but for today I have to wait.
