Default Need Help Tuning in NM

I just put 4.10 Gears in my '02 WS6 Vert. I need to re-calibrate my speedo now.

I would like to eventually get around to tuning my car....but I'd rather not spend hundreds of dollars right now just to recalibrate the speedo.

If anyone is so inclined to help out....it would be greatly appreciated.

Well, where in NM are you at. If you are over on the eastern side, you could always go to Lubbock. Texas Speed is there. I did a dyno there a few months ago. There were a few of us, so it was cheaper than it would have been if I went by my self. i hope this helps.

I'm in ABQ and I'll need a tune myself. I called a local dyno shop, but they don't tune. They refered me to another shop that does the tune, but rents the dyno from the other shop. $165/hr (includes rental of dyno), said it would be 2 hours for my head/cam swap. I have one good referance for them. Don't know of their LSx experience though... PM me for the mane of the shops...

-A few of us at Kirtland AFB are trying to get a cruise together around here if your interested...

Well....dyno tune is the next step. I'll be making other mods where it'll be useful. I know a great shop that's putting in a killer dyno setup. The problem is they don't tune LSX cars (but I can use the dyno if I can get someone to tune).

I'll PM you...I'm interested in getting together for a cruise.
