Blackbear tune
Hey guys, Just a quick question, has anybody done the Blackbear tune to there 08 and up GM 6.0? Just wondering if you have post results if you can please. I am looking at the hand held custom tune ...

If your truck is the 2009 in your signature, then you should have the 4-speed 4L80E transmission. You could remove ALL of the torque management and that transmission would be fine. They are VERY skilled at tuning and there won't be any issues with it when done.
I am having a tune for my 2010 Suburban 2500 with the 6.0 and 6L90E transmission being done as we speak by Blackbear. I have an Autocal for the scan and tuning from my Dodge truck that I am using for the Suburban and my Silverado. It really is a straight-forward and easy process.
I asked them to remove all TM from the transmission. I've been through this with multiple other trucks and the TM on the heavier duty transmissions is an annoyance more than anything. The weaker 4L60E needed it to keep from breaking stuff. That transmission is long gone.
AND lastly, with the RIGHT cam, you can gain 30-50 HP in the RPM band right where you need it and not effect driveability and/or idle very much. I've got one spec'd out for the Suburban that I will be swapping in along with a gear swap and it is a proven package (from others who have done it). It won't tow like my Cummins but it sure as heck won't tow like a stock 6.0 either!
