Default Places to tune an fbody

hey guys I'm located in central Indiana about an hour south of Indianapolis and am slowly wrapping up a 408 stroker that is going in my 2000 SS Camaro. Does anyone have any suggestions on a good place that can tune the car properly at a decent price? Thanks all for your input.

Can you trailer the car somewhere to load up a base map before you fire it up?
Are you able to get an e-tune or mail order tune?

You WILL need a base map for your setup before first crank.

Depending upon the route I go I can do either. I have access to a trailer if need be and I found a place to tune everything at a decent rate. If not I was considering the mail order tune route. . . Does anyone have experience with mail order tunes? How did you like them and how well was your car dialed in?

Try Mike Norris Motorsports, his website says he's located in Plainfield just outside of Indy. He used to have shops in central Florida before he moved back to IN a number of years ago. If you call him, tell him I said Hi... he'll recognize the name

Great thanks for the recommendation I will give him a call for sure. Do any of you know estimates on what he charges? Also does anyone suggest taking the car there for the initial start-up and tune all at once or get a mail order tune to do start-up and break-in first?
Thanks again,
