K & B products ?
 

Hey has anyone dealt with K & B products in Alpharetta GA ? I called them last week after talking to the ZR1 Specialist about having my ecm rebuilt . They said it takes 4-6 weeks , send it to us . So I sent it , they got the ecm on Monday , I get it back today with a note saying they can't test it , nor do they have parts for it at this time . Uuuuum whats wrong with this picture ?

Not surprising and never heard of them. Z ECMS are becoming hens teeth items that you can only find from a parted out Z. I have been told these CAN be repairable but not always. Not much help but it's the no so pretty truth. Did you contact Jerry ?

That's where I had my ECM rebuilt. The guy is definitely not very sociable but for me at least, it worked. He told me they have about a 2/3 success rate so it's a roll of the dice. If you didn't get charged then you're money ahead but you may have to find a new ECM. He actually send them to an ex corvette engineer who does the rebuild, which is why it takes so long. Lots of times it gets sent off, repair attempted, and it still fails. These things are getting old and fragile so no guarantees. I got lucky but I know a couple others who didn't.

You might ping Russ McBride on this forum. He's got a megasquirt running in his, probably the future for keeping these cars on the road.

I'm having the same trouble. It's been a few months now and no feedback on how this thing is going to work out. Meanwhile it sits. You would think that it would be straight forward whether it's fixable or. It and how?

I have an ECM with an issue I I need to send for possible repair..

The DIYAutotune guys have an ECM, but everytime I ask for a price is when I never get a response

Re: K & B products ?
 

Kurt White has one on Ebay but it has a core requirement. At least it has a price.

YEah the DIYAutotune is the ECM RussMcB has..

Why can't they release pricing..

Re: K & B products ?
 

No idea.. All I know is not a lot of options unless a part out occurs. next to the DIS module truly the Achilles heal of the LT5. At least its possible to rebuild the ECM or go the mega quirt route I guess. Still not for the meek cost wise. GC
