Search function in this section of LS1TECH (external engine). I have talked about it as well as Cyphur and others, some even on the same thread. There is enough info that can be found this way to warrant not repeating it

sure. this last time that i got it dynod i went to UTI in illinois it is far from me but it was free cause i have a friend that goes to school there. on a more frequent basis(although i havent been there yet) there is a place called MROZ auto and they have a dynojet. they are located in Merrillville. if those places dont work we have to drive out to IL.

hope this helps. also if you want shoot me a pm.

Thanks guys. Man I am just now finishing polishing her up. I've been working on this all day. Did not realize this could be so time consuming. I guest because this is my first time and I wanted to make sure it was done right. Can't wait to put her back on and see if I can fell any difference. Thanks again.
