Pretty much man. Its more work than tuning say a 224 cam, but its still not difficult.

Alot of tuners, even "pro" tuners patch alot of **** to try and make a big cam run right. I retune about a car a week from a shop near me. Guys got a great rep, but churns out **** constantly.
If they are setup properly, everything seems to fall into place. You end up needing alot less throttle cracker, follower, and some of the other "tweaks" that some guys use to make em run right.
Anybody can make em put up numbers. Its the driveability that makes or breaks a tuner.
I hope your right because your going to be installing my TV2 and 90/90
