Has z06 rims and 245/55/r18? tires with around 85% tread left.
Of course on a car this old it has dents and dings. No major dents, only small ones you have to look for. A few scratches here and there but not many.
The rest of the car is stock.
**YOU CAN HEAR IT RUN! CAN NOT DRIVE IT DUE TO BEING UNTUNED!**
All it needs is a good tune and it will be set.
If I can't sell it as a whole, I will begin parting it out. Car should make around 700 at the wheels.
Any questions ask. I am located in Asheboro N.C.
Asking 7500 for whole car, but will consider parting it out and selling car as a roller
Ain't nothing wrong with the build, just seems like nobody in NC wants to tune a blown LT1, and if they do you better have $1300 or a 24x conversion.
that's the biggest issue.. Might have to consider a mail order tune.. Or a road trip to someone who can Dyno tune it.. They are tuners out there, just not many..

I wish you would have held off until spring and I would have scooped up this thing. Good luck, wish we could help you save it, is it just the tune that's the issue?

Yea, I've paid 300$ to a shop to basically do nothing to the car. Tired of sinking money into it. Going to try to recoup my losses and move on

Why the need to protect who this "well known person" is. Curious to know if it's the same one I inquired about a tune who wouldn't reply to e-mails sent.

No protection, I couldn't remember the name. Pcm for less.
why is an lt1 so hard to tune? (i know nothing about tuning.) the big hot rod shop around me also said he does not tune lt1s. i have big dreams for my lt1, but threads like this make me rethink it. I dont want to go lsx because everybody has one. Im so sick of hearing about ls swap this, swap that. LOL .i know they are superior motors, i want to be different. Almost thinking about going carbed small block.haha

It's not that it's difficult for a tuner, but rather tedious. The software is extremely old and there haven't been any improvements made for years. You have to DL the tune from the PCM into the program, make adjustments and then UL back into the PCM. That process takes forever where I believe all LS1 software can make live changes. Because the LTx platform is dwindling hardly anyone uses the software anymore.
