Yeah I wish I could pull that kinda $$$ outta my ***!!! Maybe after I get settled with my girlfriend since i just moved in with her. She did mention last night though that WHEN we get married she has no problem helping me build my procharged SS that ive always wanted. Hopfully sooner than later.

why dont you do bolt on dyno tunes since headers make the car run rich? although i have yet to have mine tuned because im gettin h/c installed so why pay twice... Speaking of that.. you should run h/c cam specials.. its classic muscle car... at least cam and something.. maybe headers.. even the SC guys usually have a cam and long tubes.

There is a reason I don't just throw a car on the dyno and change A/F. Thats not the right way to tune a car and it will change as soon as you drive down the street.

I also have an NX wet kit and plan to spray a 150 shot. I don't really want to rev too high, maybe 7k but thats pushing it, but I also want the cam to be decent sized.This motor is also not going in an LS1 car, it's being swapped, so I am also on the lookout for a cheap computer and harness. If the harness, computer, and EFI live end up costing close to as much as fast XFI (which I hope is not the case) once all done I may just go that route. I'd like to stay with the stock components though. I definitly hands down want you to tune the car.
Yes, a K-member install would be nice. That seems like a pain in the *** to do in your own garage unless you have a lift. That would motivate me to pull the trigger on a UMI K-member!
Don, im deffinatly down for a cam install, you already tuned my car in april. if money is right mabye heads also,but deffinatly the cam. how soon must you start making appoitments to get stuff done? When will the special start? thanks bob
