Default Question re scanning ARAP in 1987 Vette

If I want to scan my 1987 Vette runningwith an ARAP.bin with AutoXray (or any other scanner for that matter), do I have to program in the car as a 1987 or a 1989??

....any other scanner like WInALDL wont ask the year of your car, just ECM type- such as 1227165 in your case. I dont know anything about autoXray, sorry.

I had to set my AutoXray for an '89 before it would show the correct readings.

In any scanner that prompts you for a year, you have to enter the year of the mask you are using. ARAP is 1989, therefore, you need to enter 1989 as your autos year. If you were to switch to a speed density bin, you would need to enter 1990 or 1991.
