As of right now (May 2, noon EST) 100 GPIO boards are making their way down the contract assembly line for SMT assembly! I should have these in-hand by the end of next week, I will then blast in a bootloader and check them out. t which point the first boards will be available :)

Graham,

These are not ready quite yet. Bruce has to burn the bootloader on them (my P&E BDM cable is dead, and I haven't replaced it yet). Then the boards need to come to me (mail or courier) for the final check-over (I have to build one and confirm all is well) and verifying the BOM, assembly instructions, etc.

Bruce may have already sent the production boards, I haven't asked him in the last week or so. When they get here and I have things in place, I will post a follow-up.

Lance.

Thanks for the update Lance! They keep me motivated to get my truck ready for the GPIO when it is ready.

Cheers,

I am also excited about seeing these boards. I am currently wiring up my engine and getting ready to fire it the first time. I will start with a stock ECM until the GPIO board is available. Then I will switch over to MS to run the engine and trans.

Thanks for the updates.

My 4L60E has already been rebuilt.

I am awaiting the GPIO board before ordering my MS2 and torque converter.

I have had a part in developing an adapter kit for GM trannies to Datsun L series engines, and can't wait to put the 4L60E behind mine and not have to deal with Atlanta traffic and a 5 speed tranny anymore!
