yes I have long tubes but I am still on the stock lid and intake. Yes Nick is great and has tuned my car before and I was very happy with what he was able to get out of it. I may have just went in a little unprepared and should have got the other mods first.

Hope you get it all worked out. I honestly can't believe you have all that other stuff and still don't have a lid or intake!
I also don't think it's been mentioned, how many miles on the engine?

Hey derek, did you not just loan a tool to my buddy to put his cam in.....That was pretty cool of ya. I wish I would have had that when we did mine. The car has about 97,000 miles on it. But it has run strong ever since I owned it I mean I pulled 346/342 Through a 9" with just headers and exhaust. i am really wondering if my tune is not that good. Now that I think about it.

Would anyone have anything that I could compare my tune to see if it looks good or if it could use some work.

yep, that was me.
MC's seem to have a good reputation for tuning. I would rule that out. EDIT: I see you are stumped by top end power......since other people with this cam do not have that problem, but maybe with the intake air restriction, the car suffocates while trying to build pressure. Am I nutts with this idea?

actually to tell you the truth you may be some what right. i have been told that all that I am doing is sufocatting my car right now. How would I know If I am having problems building compression down low.

You may have to stop by and check out the car when I get back. I would be interested to meet another f-body person in the area

the upper rpm's is when the air restriction would be most obvious.
