He lives in the northeast corner of ct. He is about an hour away from slowhawk performance and my guess would be around an hour away from eastside also.

Completely false. I am sure you will find that most shops work on ls1's, and don't want to touch LT1's.

Go to Slowhawk. If you live by Gary (gman) & me, it's the same distance as Eastside. Well worth the trip.

Not going to. $3-$4k for tuning 2-3 cars a year isn't worth it.LT1 guy's can buy there own for $250 and then have us tune it.
