Default Tuning LS1 after stroker kit

What do I need to properly tune a 98 Corvette vert. M6 after making it a large inch small block? Somewhere between 427 and 457 cid, with new heads, cam, intake, throttle body, etc. New to the world of computer controls, but not performance small blocks. Have done alot of UMP modified racing (dirt track). Thanks for any info you can send my way.

HP tuners, which is about $500, you'd be better having a shop tune it for $400

Take it to a shop that is reputable in the LS1 game and let them work their magic.

Like BlueSix said, take it to a shop that has some experience with dyno tuning.

I don't know where you are located, but MTI (Houston) built and wide-band dyno tuned my 427. If you're not in or around Houston you can try some other sponsors that we have, look to the right --->


Peace,
Craig.
