well if its running rich.. you need to check everything else first... everyone blames there cars being rich due to the tune.. yes, the cars are alittle rich from the factory but if you are having problems you need to check it out before you have it tuned, cuz if it gets tuned to try to fix a problem your only going to make it worse.. check your O2's and plugs and injectors and all the stuff like that...

I know Xtreme Horsepower does dyno tuning. They are in the North Ridgelan (spelling?) Hills area. I dont know about their expertise on the LT1, but its still a shop to look into.

I am in Dallas, but I take my car to Ed Wright in Tulsa Oklahoma. It is a couple hr drive, but well worth it. I no know of no one reputable in Dallas that tunes our cars.

Looks like I might have to do a search on the whole state of texas instead of just the Dallas area.LOL...I guess there are no tuners in Dallas.I know Ed has a hell'of a good name.Maybe its worth the drive even if it is in the dreaded state of Oklahoma.PROPS to the kayak trip in Broken Bow..NO DIS..Extreme FUN..

Ed was worth the trip to me. I got 380rwhp out of a little Hot cam. I think I hit 375-377 on his dyno last time I was there.

Moe Bailey in Waco does mine.....
He nailed my AF on the base tune....told him on the phone what the car was doing, and the new parts added.
When we took to dyno tune it...we checked the AF meter to make sure it was working....it was perfect
