I just bought EFI Live today, so please take it easy on me until I get a hang of this. Thanks.

Can I use a tune from any model LB7 in my 01? Or is the 01 a year specific model?

It is specific based on your operating system. Have you read and saved your stock tune yet? If so e-mail it to me at poschevy82@hotmail.com and I will help you out;)

Many '01 owners actually upgrade to an '02 OS because of some tuning "quirks".

In terms of loading up different year LB7 file into your truck, we recommend you don't. What you can do is find a tune you want to load (ie Modified tune from the library) and script it against a matching year stock tune also from the library. This will provide a summary of differences between the files, and you can then apply those changes to your stock file.

Instructions on how to script can be found http://dieselplace.com/forum/showthread.php?t=194677

Hope this helps
Cheers

I havent gotten it yet, it will be here later tonight. :D So I will take my OS out and try to copy it, that way I can still run the truck while I tune the program.
