Default Need a SD tune in the NW

Hey guys,

Looking for a tuner to do a SD tune on my 1969 Camaro in WA. It's a forged LS2 402/T56 combo. Will be runing a F1a unit,TFS 220cc heads,Blower cam,Victor jr/6061 elbow intake combo,90mm tb,80lb injectors, and Kooks 1 7/8 headers. Willing to do some traveling to get it done. Need a street tune and some dyno time. The previous tuner(Sponsor) I was using for my 99 SS does not feel comfortable doing a SD.

Thanks
Troy

Talk to Wong at Wong's Performance here in Vancouver, Wa. He can do speed density tuning.

Custom 2 or 3 bar tune needed based on the blower potential If the person you talk to does not know what you are talking about, run away. Fast.

You can tune it with a MAF IF you use a new style LS3/7 MAF and use a large enough diameter intake pipe so you don't hit the 512g/s limit in the PCM (Im assuming its an LS1 PCM, but same goes for E40 and early E38/E67s).

Im tune in Seattle as well, but I dont have a dyno so I rent dyno time from other shops.

Good luck with your build, post back with some #s when you get it running.
