Call GForce. IF they will still do the LT1 tune I would trust Mikes tuning.

With that set up, I think you'd be just fine with a mail order tune. Guys like Bryan have seen a lot of cars with similar set ups, you should be just fine.

I Just got my car tuned from Bryan at PCMforless.com and im not very impressed but I guess he cant get every mail order tune right. But I would like to know who does the best LT1 dyno tune around DFW.

Damn this is bad news for me about g force. I am wondering who is good with LT1 tune in my area now? I have a mail order tune from PCM for less to get me in the gen area, but really needed a dyno tune later on.

I have experience with Bryan.. He has done ok work, but I have found that for a mail order tune Ion Soltan from Mad Z28 does better mail order tuning.. However, I have also found that with generic tuning, it only gets you so far.. When we dyno tuned my 94 from the mail order it gained power like crazy..

I am just wondering why you would go carb'ed over fuel injection.. i would even rather have TPI over a carb....


What was your reason for putting in a Gen I SB???

Well, I can mess with the trans stuff.... Wait, your OBDII huh? Well you could either convert to OBDI and tune that way or you are going to have to go get a dyno tune... Tunercats has sold out to JET Performance and now you have to spend $500 to buy thier OBDII stuff -Freakin rip off crap....
