Default Suspension Tune

Is there a place in the Dallas / Ft.Worth area (or Texas) that can do a Chasis Tune?

I just finished with my '02 Camaro installing all new fully adjustable suspension. Every new piece (UMI) is adjustable: K-Member, Lower A Arms, Transmission/Torque Arm Mount, Torque Arm, LCA's, Pan Hard Rod, Drag Bar and Strange Shocks (4).

Also, should I have a front end alignment done before I have the chasis tuned? Any recomendations?

The intended use for the car is a street car with frequent visits to the Drag Strip so I need a drag tune.

Thanks

Chad

Got the hookup from a guy on here.

2831 NE Stallings Drive C
Nacogdoches, TX 75965

I have an apointment with Vic when he gets back from Houston. He has a car running in the NHRA Spring Nationals @ The Royal Purple Raceway. Cool guy to talk to, asked me a lot of questions about the car and what has been done. Told him what the car will be used for and he said he can get it done in half a day.

I'm there dude!
