Previous owner tune?
Any way to determine if there is a tune on a 6.0?
I wouldn't want to loose a preexisting tune on accident by flashing a new tune over it.
2 vehicles missing certain pieces and with other mods may already have tunes from the pre- E P A days.
I bought both at auction so no comm with previous owner.
I have an sct-x4, an older bullydog, and Forscan, none of which came with aforementioned trucks.

Actually the strategy number is only part of the equation. You can still have a stock strategy number and be tuned. One would need to compare the Calibration Validation Numbers to truly tell if the truck has been tuned.
The CVN can be retrieved in Mode $09.

Is there a resource that lists stock CVN's? I have a SnapOn Verus Pro scantool that can probably access Mode $09.

I know of one that exists, but there is no way to access it. It is owned by CARB and they use it for smog test now in California.
Your Snapon scanner should be able to read mode $09.
