Thanks Virginia Speed! Finally got a great tune thanks to Ed at Virginia Speed!
1969 Conv. Camaro
Engine: LME 430 LS7, Stock LS7 Heads with exhaust port clean up, 11.5 to 1 compression, Katech Torquer Cam (220/244 110), Formato ported LS7 intake and gm 90mm etb, PowrMax 100mm MAF,stock diam. pulley with full accessories.
T56 with Ford 9 inch 3.70 gears, 18/12inch wheels...
There are many tuners that are capable of big numbers but the real story here is what Ed did for drivability. In the first hour of street tuning with Ed he did more for the idle and over all street manners than 3 other tuners had combined (these were well known tuners).
After years of frustration and many, many tunes, my car is finally running the way I dreamed it would, and for anyone that thought the Katech Cam was too small, well....
I want to thank everyone that helped me decided on Virginia Speed because they are what Everyone said they are, a great shop with great service.
Thanks again Ed!!!
Can't wait to hit the track this spring,
Matt

The car only had 40 miles on it at the time, and the next attempt in went into limp down mode after the burn out and that was that.
Based on the new #'s and some practice, I'm hoping to get mid to low 11's with street tires. I need to work on driving skills more than anything else!

Not really, I ran a low 12 after a 2.1 60ft, spun hard in 2nd, let off, back in and missed 4th completely. Ran a 12.1 at 115.
