Below is the response from my tuner(frost)on the DD VSS(very bottom) I have it installed now and it does nothing. I have ran the truck with it hooked up and connected with no difference. I’m not complaining, the truck runs great and does not stall, but it has trouble finding idle when you come to a stop. It also throws the P0506 code related to not having the vss. My current set up is the turbo 400. Going to just take the plunge and put a 4wd 4l80e and add the rear vss and use that. From what I have re searched this should work when I’m in 2wd and 4hi. If not I will continue the hunt for a 241c. There is a 241c for sale local with a 27 sline that I may pick up and look into converting it to a 32. I will make sure to post my results. I have to order a bunch of things so will probably be a few weeks before I get started.
Hey David,
it's not a pain, but it touches on a gray area for mail ordering.... we don't do a lot of advising builds that we aren't building, but I feel inclined to tell you that that DD VSS generator is just not going to work (as you think and as they say). The reason I usually don't mention things like this, is it leads to "tell me what to do then" or the individual becoming upset. I don't have advice here to give on an alternative. We used to use a part for th400s to add a late model toothed reluctor/gear but they are no longer available. I scale for them (the DD unit that you have), but you can't adjust the minimum time between pulses to declare 0 speed. My answer if pushed to tell me what to do is use a late model tranny with a proper VSS. Sure lots of guys do what you are doing. Lots of them fight with them for quite some time. Everything else is legit; sensor wise.
