Say no to Advance Driveline, unless you like not having your car for 2 weeks at a time.

For tuning I would suggest VMP tuning, Justin is awesome. For everything else I'm not positive as I haven't lived there forever, Norris left didn't he? I'd say Corvette Master's (probably expensive). If you wanted to drive my way I could do everything but the tune for you, or my friend Jeremy lives in the St. Cloud area and he can do some tuning and possibly help you with everything else or at LEAST suggest a good shop. You could also try checking out fuelslut.net and asking around there. Let me know if you need anything, hope I helped a little lol

Corvette MAsters on 17-92 does great work, good prices too. They have a dyno but use Jeremy Formato for tuning IIRC.

Ya I've been to CM a bunch of times for dyno days and know a few of the people that work there but have never checked there prices, I figured by the work they do it might be a little expensive but wasn't sure, this was YEARS ago too. They do awesome work.
