I have had 2 different cars tuned by LG and a few mods performed by them also. They are great people and do good work, however their tuning was not the best in the world. Seemed to me that since I was not spending $10K plus they didnt spend quality time getting my car to my specs. I also had a car tuned by Jeff Creech at Thunder Racing and it was shitty.... plain Shitty! LMR (Houston) tuned my 08 Vette and did a great job but its a 10 hour trip and I'm not sure they do any better job than Greg Mcbride does. Just my 2c.......
Louis actually does great tuning from what I have seen, and has recently split from LG (his dads company) and partnered to open a new shop in Dallas.
I switched to Dallas Performance a couple years back and have been nothing but pleased. Taylor's attention to detail and knowledge is second to none, and I truly wouldn't take my Twin Turbo car anywhere else as long as he is conveniently and easily accessible.

Nothing is wrong with the 80. Im going with the gmpp intake and msd setup so i cant use the 80. I know the th350 and 400s will bolt up and work but theres a big deal with the early lq4 having a longer crank or a spacer under the flywheel. My old lq had the spacer that could be removed. It was a 02 so idk if this has the spacer or the longer crank and if it even matters. BTW, im trading the 04 for a 77 firebird and going to put it on a strict diet with a little nitrous, gear, and a big stall. May even mini tub it for a set of 315s.

I am also looking for a good tuner new motor should be in this week will need tune looked at. Last time it was in a f-body it only went 6.80's at 102mph in the 1/8 at 3650lb race weight all motor. The truck it was in made a little less than 500hp to rear wheels and 730hp on a 150 shot. The little motor has been setting a good while hopefully it will still perform.

finally took the plunge got the motor off Broz Powell he is going with a big block in the 02 drag car. Old ls1 was running fine won the street radial class at Prescott's last efi class had a 145,000 miles on it that night. The new one should be a little faster than old cam only 346 on a 170 shot just on motor. Haven't decided what to do with the 346 might just hang on to it wll be complete less intake
