Default Need Help finding a place

I am getting ready to be doing some mods to my z28, and i need to find a good place to install some things. I am planning on doing headers, a cam, and a stall. I will install the headers myself, but i dont really want to mess with the cam and stall. And after i get those installed, i will probably need a tune. So I need suggestions on where to get that done too. Do i find a place to take the car? Or do one of those mail in type things? I am in central indiana.

huhh... i guess it might just be better to just try and install things myself. or can a smaller local shop handle this kind of installation?

i wouldn't have some backyard mechanic that has not had an LS1 apart before do a cam install. would be well worth your time to get the car to speed inc and leave it. they could install everything, and then dyno tune it as well. email larry@speedinc.com
