Default 408 Tuning

Can anyone tell me what I should focus on for tuning? I scaled my cubic inch size, IFR, backed down timing 3000rpm and up about 4 degrees, and scaled intake air a little. Anything else?

My heads are 2.05/1.6 and cam is 238/242 .605/.612. LS6 intake and 85mm maf ends, stock TB.

What are the main tables I should focus on? Any general VE stuff I should do?

Also, I took off the EGR, I searched the forums but didnt find much. What do I disable in Edit?

Thanks

Good luck with people sharing that info. I asked in the past and no one wants to help with tuning a 402-408 stroker. Must be top secret stuff... lol

I dunno...doesnt seem too bad. So far I have put on that base tune and it seems to run pretty good. I havent driven it yet, but I just wondered if anyone had some pointers before I get into tuning it. Havent had the time yet this weekend...
