Default Out with the FITech, In with the Holley Terminator X

So I took off the FITech 1200 PA and installed the TX.

The car:
71 Trans Am
6.0 L96 rec port Gen IV
Victor Jr. intake
Accufab 4 bbl throttle body
Cammotion Junk yard dog V2 cam.
Flat top pistons.
Full length headers with 3 in. exhaust all the way to the tips.
TKX 5 speed trans.
3.73 12 bolt
A/C

First impressions:

Wiring up the TX was major PITA! (but worth it). Sensor extensions, extending and shortening wires. Relays, relays, relays, normally open, normally closed. Sheesh!

FIT much easier. Everything pretty much wires to the throttle body.

First time car start, the TX fired right up.

FIT needed a million adjustments just to get the car to drive right or at least decent.. FIT uses their own nomenclature compared to Holley or even HP Tuners for that matter.

TX on the other hand a couple minor adjustments and the car runs great. Not saying it doesn't need a couple more tweaks but overall the car runs good. Idles nice, no stalling no bucking. If I did nothing else as to tuning I could live with it as is but who am I kidding I can't leave well enough alone, lol.

Next I will start adjusting fuel tables, timing, etc. and start to dial in.

If any body has any questions feel free to ask...
