Default Heads and Cam ?

I live in Minnesota and I was woundering where I could get a cam installed and heads installed, don't mind driving a little bit eather but I want good work done and tuning also. I am new to the LS1 and have no Idea how to tune them? if it is easy than I can tune it, I just don't want to screw it up. <img border="0" alt="[Firebird]" title="" src="graemlins/formula.gif" />

Read up on it and you might surprise yourself and do it on your own. I did mine and am glad that I did. I learned a ton doing it. Pictures of my install and links to install guides are off my homepage.

Getting it tuned can either be mail order. Or find a place that will do it on a dyno. I'm a bigger fan of dyno tuning it because you really get a better result. I should clarify that, you will find potential issues and be able to correct them that you would not find with a mail order tune.
