I would't consider rockers a "basic" bolt on. Get yourself a stall and some gears man and that thing will fly.

I have the 3:23 gear stock. I'm going to stay with that for a while. I can't keep traction right now as it is...With sticky tires I think I can get a 1.9 60' and that would be good enough. I'll think about getting a stall, but I really don't go to the track much. I'm definitaly going to get some nitto's. (or something along the lines of a drag radial) I don't think the throttle body would do anything, unless I had more mods...Do you think I can run a mid 13 with what I currently have? If I hooked off the line. I would think I could hit around 101 in the quarter, does that seem logical?

Gm high-tech performance doesn't speak for half the people that only know the "basic" bolt ons 
. The reason I wouldn't consider them a simple bolt on is because it's part of your valvetrain. I don't know, but to me it just don't seem like a bolt on someone would just happen to have. What part of IL you from?

Well, I already have the LT4 KM. So, I guess that doesn't matter. Wow, that sucks. I can't drive my car until it comes back. Well, forget that then...I'll have to go to the local guy my friend was talking about.

I think my friend told me he charged 200 bucks. I'm not sure about the free tunes after. I'll have to find out. I was driving my car around today for a bit. (I had kind of a lot to do) The car felt great. Yes, a big difference. I'm honestly very shocked how much of a change it made. When I put shorty headers on my 305 camaro, it was only a little difference. This car screams. I really like the sound too.

Now ION did my tune on the 97 and i noticed a nice increase in power and it pulled better in 5th & 6th gear. he's a really cool guy and since we met up in person he did a dyno tune and adjusted some other things differently then he would for just a basic tune.
also im running a jet hot air foil with a trickflow intake elbow as long as you don't have the vortech elbow you should be able to run the air foil, as far as gains ive seen reportings of 4-5 RWHP & 2-3 RWTQ from it and in my book every little bit counts.
