chevy 406 is a friend of a few of use in the shoals area who lives in Huntsville. he comes to Florence every so often to tune cars for some people when we can get enough to make it worth coming to town.he's a stand up guy who is very sharp on turning ls cars.he has a 01 vet making 480+ hp and a ls swapped 69 nova that runs in the 5's,so that's good enough for me to trust him.if you want to drive to Florence and meet some of us and get yours tuned just let us know and we'll get you directions.

homerunhtr21, glad to see that you havent deserted us LOL. Yeah its Chevy 406 he should be able to hook you up. Send him a P.M. it may be a few days before he gets back with you as he is getting ready to go to LS Fest this weekend. He could answer your questionsbetter that I can, but I'm almost 100% sure that he could hook you up.

Phil,
If you want to get it tuned anytime in the near future the 21 is it as he is pretty booked up the rest of the month. As I know of at least 1 head and Cam and clutch that he has lined up for the end of the month. He is like myself he has a full time job and the tuning and side jobs support his racing endeavors.

Well as I told you before, I had tried to schedule a tune with him a couple times before but or schedule kept changing but when we finally got something lined up he flaked on me so I'm not gonna deal with it again

Phil, I have known him for about 15 years. And granted I cant speak on your experience. But I can speak about him. This doesn't sound like him at all. I have never known him to stand me or anyone else that he had made arrangements with. Sounds like there may of been some mis-communication between the two of you. I would suggest that you give him a call and see what happened.

I'm good, I just have zero patience for excuses... no big deal I'm actually schedulinga tune with Lane culver, little more expensive but having a dyno there to tune with makes me feel safer knowing I can see the improvements being made

I have never had anything tuned by Lane, but I have a few good buddies that have and they were pleased with his work. In the end it all depends on whom you feel comfortable with good luck with everything.

You still need to ride north one day LOL. Do ya'll meet and hang out down there much?
