Either way it can be upgraded to a MS3 processor. If it’s an MS3 and John doesnt want it I would be interested in it. MS 3.0 board. If you want to PM an e-mail I can send you a copy of the original invoice from DIY autotune. Also have LC1 kit I don’t need either. ---

Jon why exactly are you looking to go MS? What are you currently using for EMS on slow? I’m just wondering if there is an easier solution out there then a new harness and ECM. ---

Gotcha…well there is Megashift (4l80 stuff here: [http://www.msgpio.com/manuals/mshift/4L80.html](http://www.msgpio.com/manuals/mshift/4L80.html)), so maybe that combined with your box might be a good option for him. I believe he might wanna ditch his optispark for COP as well. ---

Going 4l80 won’t require any drivers or comp controll seeing as it will be manual valvebody . My thing is I wanna got to a coil pack ign and better tuning as tuning on lt,s sucks and the opti sucks . ---

I know there is one out there for gen1 motors, thought the same guys make an LT1 kit. ---

lol ok then, if youre dead set on going standalone, megasquirt is the way to go unless you wanna spend the dough ($1k-2k) for one of the bigger systems. there are enough people around here that use it so youll have plenty of help building it, if you need to, and tune it. save a few bucks and buy toomany’s deal or a kit from MS and have someone build it, or spend some more and order a prebuilt one. even with a prebuilt youll still be way under a grand. ---

Buy the kit already started says me. Pay AMD to finish soldering the box if it is necessary. He has built a couple dozen by now anyway. ---
