My lt1 is running really rich and the guys who recently tuned it only spent 15 minutes on the tune itself. The probplem is the Guy I really need to tune it legitly doesnt have the software for obd2 lt1s. What do I do? I really dont want to buy the software for it or the cable also. What are my options here?
Thanks

If you want a dyno tune and no people around you have the software and you don't want to buy it then converting to obd1 is probably the best option.

-Around $250 plus shipping for OBDII to OBDI through madZ28
-Around $450 for LT1edit software and cable
-Not sure about Jet Performance dynamic spectrum tuning software or cable costs
-Around $100-$200 for mail order tune

Take your pick.
