I have a hard time explaining to some people how to make basemaps whil keeping it super simple. I'd like to hear if you guys have any tips/tricks to creating good basemaps so maybe it can be explained a little better.
For most F/H motors and most other engines for that matter, the stock fuel/ignition tables are fairly conservative. They tend to have an ok a/f ratio and don't push boundaries in the timing advance area so for most applications, factor in the injector size, fuel pressure, and the tables are automatically adjusted based on those and should be good enough to start an engine without doing damage. Even bore/stroke/port changes don't require major changes in the table. Maybe add a little fuel here and there but not much else. I usually tell people not to touch the fuel/ignition tables aside from the injectors/fuel unless the have a specific reason to. Is this what you guys tell people/do yourself or do you have any other things you recommend.
BTW, This is not considering the actual tuning aspect....just the basemap.
