    COPO Camaro 427 tune

    Does anyone have a base tune from the 427 COPO Camaro that comes with the HiRam intake?

    Thanks.

    COPOs use an MEFI 5A programmed controller. Specific tuning software required ... similar to the Ramjet crate engine line of products, or marine controllers ...

    Yep. Seems a lot of guys are swapping over to FAST or other systems though.

    There's quite a few more performance minded control outputs in say, a Motec or something of that sort, as compared to a standard GM SCU setup. Too bad GM didn't make their own, but for some reason they REALLY REALLY REALLY want to keep the COPO's off the street

    I noticed in a video of one of the supercharged COPO engines on a GM engine dyno that they must be running pure SD as they videoed the throttle blade opening for a pull with obviously no MAF sensor. It seems vey odd to me though that GM would just let the engine pull dyno room air and not conditioned air. Maybe that was just for the video.
    I was hoping to see what they used for the cyl charge temp bias and filter, as well as the transient fuel settings considering the aluminum HiRam intake.
