Actually, seems to me that guys are having issues with the 93 Chipped cars not the 94 thru 97 LT1's done up here. I'm not sure what the issues are as I am not involved in the 93 and older cars as they are done at a different location, but I will see what I can find out.
Thanks,
Bryan

Agree with Dave J. Unless you can see what the O2 sensors are thinking you'll never know what's actually happening.

This is true, but unless you have some type of radical setup that's far outside the norm of typical LT1 builds, or you have other problems (mechanical, electrical, etc.), a mail order tune will be 99% spot on.

Thousands of people have had good success with mail order tunes from PCM4less or MADz28 when they are used as a starting point.

Thumbs up

I highly recommend Bryan. I've used him for years and years. On my last engine install, a 409, he send me a tune for it, just until we could get together for a dyno-tune.

He comes down to my neck of the woods, put it on the dyno, and the mail order tune was dead-on. I mean he nailed it.

Obviously, a dyno-tune is the best ticket, but my experience with Bryan, and many others as well, have been very good.

Unless you have a really wild tune, he should get you real close, until you can put it on the dyno.

Bryan had always done an outstanding job with the tunes he has done for me!

I just got a pcm4less tune flashed for my 383 stroker. While it is in the ball park it still needs to be tweaked and getting a hold of them for revisions is annoying since they seem to be so "busy".

I'm going to use Ion@MadZ28 here in a week or two for my tune. I haven't heard a single bad thing about his tunes. Plus, he's only a couple hours from me, so I'll probably get my tuned PCM within a day or two of ordering it.
