As the title says, I'm looking for a good tuner in the North Louisiana area. I'm in Shreveport, I'll drive a few hours, but the closer, the better...

Thanks for the input... I'm probably going to stay away from Futural. I've heard of their custom-grind cams having lobes falling off of them and crazy **** like that. A buddy of mine did an LS1 stroker swap on his silverado ecsb with over 500 bhp and they told him the stock 4L60E would hold up... Didn't even hook up a trans cooler or anything. Took them a long time, too. Has anybody here dealt with Wheatley Tuning?

I am skeptical considering he has 3 whole post on here. Additionally, the lobes are not falling off cams so the Truck Guy needs to get his facts straight.

Wow... easy there, guys. I havn't been a part of THIS forum very long, but that doesn't mean **** when it comes to my credibility... I've just expanded my horizons a little bit from all the truck forums to gain a little more knowledge of who is worth a **** when it comes to speed shops around the local area. There are way more LS1 cars around here running strong than there are trucks, so I figure I'd check in here and see who everyone in using... Damn...
As far as the story about lobes falling off, I'll try to find it and post the link...
You guys sure know how to make someone feel welcome.
