Had a BLAST at G-Force today. Great bunch of guys and treated us like old friends!
It looks like one of the previous owners had tried to tune it but leaned her out a bit too much. No worries at all, G-Force took care of that.
Specifics; HPTuners on a DynoJet.
Pre-Tune.
Red is after the initial tune. AF ratio is looking better.....ALOT smoother.....
More AF tuning and more RPMs.....
Still SAE numbers and looking better....
I did not get an SAE v. STD photo, but they were very close......not bad for a VERY stock vehicle.....with 115k miles.....
Overall, I think it is a great baseline to start.

Fixed my busted ballast today; really easy but took some time. Bought a slim ballast off ebay.
Also fixed the fucked up grilles that several of the previous owners had painted in place and tried but failed at taping off the surrounding areas. FN pathetic attempt at best.
Media blasted everything and repainted.
Much cleaner looking.

Installed the RevShift tranny insert this week. It transmits ALOT more feel and sound from the road.
As I had mentioned in an earlier thread, I had the typical rubbing issues with the AZ shifter, so here is what I had to do:
Had a big day today.
Painted the V emblems red.
My dash was cracked, so I glued it back, then went down to the fabric store and got 1/3 yd of synthetic microsuede to cover it in"
Time for Headers and cam next.

On what LSA and advance?
Check out Tick's SNS stage 2 cam for LS!/LS6 motors or AI's Streetsweeper HT cam. Both have similar duration to the one you mentioned, along with a tight LSA and +3 advance that will give you good power under the curve and a nice ratatat idle.

Wow my car has a fast 102, long tubes, and 0.3 more liters and only makes 20 more rwhp... Think I need to have gforce tune mine as well.
Just bought the revshit trans insert, could use ur assistance on getting the AZN shifter to clear when I install it. I'm not too far from Baytown.

Try this.
I re-adhered a sandal sole with this stuff about 3 months ago, among other things.
