Major Tune-Up on my 2002 Z28 I have a 2002 Z28. I bought it with 78k miles. It now has 108k miles. When I first bought it in 2005 it was smashing. Now its not smashing like before. I figured i need a major tune-up. Whats some good advice to get it back to its old form. After I do the major tune-up I plan to give her some mods. But for right now im jus focused on the basics. I already bought my plugs and wires..ac delco iridiums...and ac delco wires...this will be my first tune-up. Any advice is appreciated...thanks

Get an actual injector flush - will run 60-120 bucks depending on where you go. Running cleaner through the tank will prevent but not clean. Seafoam may do you as well for this purpose. All the other advice you got was spot-on. Maintenance will keep that puppy goin' a LONG time.

i would do a tranny flush, rear-end flush, radiator flush, plugs, wires, air-filter, fuel filter, and oil change to get her back to bein fresh, as well as the injector flush.
