Default 2000 SS in need of a tune, mail order or dyno?

Has auburn 373, strait cut gears in trans, gm "hotcam", flo-pac, 85mm maf, msd wires and unknown plugs, dynomax bullet muffler, egr off, no cats. Car hasn't been tuned to the cam I just bought it and it runs rich (strong gas odor) kinda stumbles when u start it till the commputer can adjust for the cams. Runs great but throws check engine light occasionally but normally goes off. My ?, will a mail order tune work for this or should I spend the $ on a dyno tune? I just bought the car off here this is the add. https://ls1tech.com/forums/private.p...&pmid=10858919

Mail order tune. You don't have anything wild or exotic in there...very common setup.
