This control system is a stand alone, fully-integrated kit designed to run Chevrolet Performance LS9 series crate engines. Included
in the kit are the engine control module (flashed with the appropriate calibration), engine harness, accelerator pedal, mass air
flow (MAF) sensor, MAF sensor mounting boss, oxygen sensors (2), and oxygen sensor mounting bosses (2). The required
fuel system needs to be controlled to 60 psi at idle and 75 GPH @ 65 psi (450 kPa) for WOT conditions. Vehicle performance/
driveability and engine durability may be affected if the correct pressure or flow are not maintained.
IMPORTANT: Read the 'System DOs and DON'Ts' section below before attempting to install the engine and then review
again before attempting start the vehicle. Note that if the engine will not come off idle after the control system installation,
check for an illuminated MIL (malfunction indicator light, which is located in the fuse/relay center, sometimes called
the "Check Engine Light" or "Service Engine Soon" light) which indicates stored fault codes. Check for codes and
make any required repairs if the MIL is illuminated (typically it is a connector issue or a wiring issue), consult a service
manual if necessary.
Observe all safety precautions and warnings in the service manuals when installing this package in any vehicle. Wear
eye protection and appropriate protective clothing. Support the vehicle securely with jack stands when working under or
around it. Use only the proper tools. Exercise extreme caution when working with flammable, corrosive, and hazardous
liquids and materials. Some procedures require special equipment and skills. If you do not have the appropriate training,
expertise, and tools to perform any part of this conversion safely, this work should be done by a professional.
System DOs and DON'Ts:
Do:
•
Ensure all intended engine/vehicle side connections are made before connecting ignition or battery power to the system.
•
Ensure the wiring harness is secured as required, and that the routing avoids locations which can potentially damage the
wiring (e.g.: sharp edges, pinch points, rotating components, exhaust components, etc.). Make sure any unused connectors
or wiring are properly secured and protected (sealed or taped as required to avoid short circuiting).
•
Ensure all engine and wiring harness grounds are clean and secure. Minimum ¾ inch braided strap from the engine to the
vehicle chassis is recommended.
•
Ensure the MAF sensor is oriented correctly in the induction (it will only read correctly in the proper direction). An arrow is
located on the sensor indicating correct flow direction. Verify this before welding the mounting boss, as the sensor will mount
only one way in the boss.
•
Ensure the MAF Sensor is mounted in the middle of a minimum 6 inch length of 4 inch diameter tube, and is a minimum of
10 inches from the throttle body.
•
Ensure the fuel pressure is capable of 600 kPa (87 psi) with the engine running. The pressure regulator must be vacuum
referenced.
Ensure the fuel pump has the following flow capability: Minimum 75 gph @ 65 psi (450 kPa).
•
•
Ensure battery voltage is connected using a minimum 8 gauge wire to the horizontal stud on the fuse block. See Connections
section for details.
•
Ensure that the accelerator pedal clearances meet the guidelines below.
Don't:
•
Change or alter any wiring in the accelerator pedal or electronic throttle systems.
•
Solder or alter any oxygen sensor wiring.
