I agree on top gear motorsports, but unfortunately nic d (straight from nicd's mouth) doesnt do lt1s anymore, not sure where to send you for a tune

LT1 or LS1? Top Gear has done a lot of work with Bryan Herter/PCMforless for LT1 tunes including my car.

my car is at topgear right now doing a performance trans rebuild, seem like nice guys down there. I am sad to hear its going to be hard to get a tune done down the road when i decide to do heads and cam on my lt1. i agree with everyone to give topgear a call

A shop in Tempe needs to be told about , if they dont compensate me for installing small valve springs on a high lift cam. Meanwhile I can be PM to tell you who to stay away from !

Not sure how much actual internal engine work they do, but Cordes Performance in Tempe turns out some good, quality work.

It's a LS ..... just do the work yourself, there easy engines to work on.. no need to spend alot of money. If you want more power buy a stroker short block already done, slap on some good heads and cam, fast intake and bam --- your done.. want more power then look at Sloppy Mechanics site and build a Chinese turbo kit and make 700+..... as far as tuners in Phoenix I recommend NicD.
