it has come to my attention that this forum is stepping up, getting a section dedicated to LS engines and what not. So i figured i'd post up a few tips to help you guys with your swap. So, you have your Gen 3 wired up and ready for that first start, you spin the key over and the engine either: cranks, but stalls, or doesn't fire at all. This could possibly be because of an error in your wiring OR VATS. if you've checked all of your wiring, and it is indeed correct then your next step would be to disable VATS. Don't worry, this process will only take about ten minutes using HPtuners.
Step one: Try to start your square. it will either crank, but stall or not crank at all, as depicted above.
Step two: **Leave your key ON** ****VERY IMPORTANT**** otherwise you will have to start all over.
Step three: Click on relink VATS on the flash menu.
Step four: Wait 10 minutes
Step five: Pull key from igniton.
Step six: Wait ten seconds.
Step seven: Start your vehicle
If the vehicle doesn't start, repeat the entire process, as you possibly could have overlooked a step.
