OK to drive 1100 miles without tune?
I installed a G5X1 cam, ported 853 heads, and LS6 intake over the winter. No one even close to here tunes cars and I was thinking about driving the 1,100 miles to New Era to have Mike tune the car. He did it for me when it was minor bolt ons only and I was very impressed. Will I be OK to drive that far without a tune?

I would look into getting a mail order tune first if your going to drive that far. That should get you in the ballpark. The G5x1 isn't a huge cam so it should probably be ok anyway. I think 1100 miles is a LONG way though. A lot of people go with the mail order route just to get the car going before they can have it dyno tuned.
