that would be nice i wasnt expecting that much, once i get everything installed would this be enough stuff to make it worth while to get dynotuned.. a new shop pretty close to here in atlanta texas opened up with a chasis dyno(less than a hour compared to 2 hours in DFW area) same prices as anywhere else(400 or so for full tune etc., and 75 for 3 base line pulls)... would the 400 bucks be worth it

of course!, the added hp is lets just say...a bonus! I wouldnt tune a car unless i did some major modifications headers, cam, heads, etc. But like i said if u have the money to spend hell ya why not??

10 Camaros You Should Never Buy
Just my .02 but,
If your willing to spend $$ on a dyno tune, wouldn't you want to shop around a bit, find a cam to work w/ the LT's. Pretty easy to find an LT1 cam for around 200 or so. Really depends on what you are going to do with the car.
If you just want a dependalble, daily driver to have rebuilt, sounds fine. But then it's confusing with the dyno and tune question. You want more performance, well, while the engine is being put together, stick in a few parts, shave the heads a bit, etc. All are low cost if the motors already out.
Don't be in a hurry to slap it all together and then be disappointed that it doesn't really go any faster than any other bone stock car.
Not trying to rain on your parade, just giving you some additional ideas.
Good luck with it,
Kev

i already know all of this.... but as for the cam and heads work im already saving for LE3 H/C package i almost bought a LE2 package lloyd had sitting around but figured i save a bit more... so im just doing some small things to get me by for know... but considering i was on 150k miles... rebuilt motor with the upgrades im getting will be considerably noticeable to me anyway and all the guys i hang out with
well i did some research the 1.6 rockers are gonna change my lift to .477/.490 compared to stock .447/.459 ... not sure if it changes the duration at all i wouldnt think so..
we should be starting to put it back together sometime next week as soon as the parts get here gotta take them to the shop doing the engine rebuild... crate assembly was only 100 bucks so why not
