Default Tuners on the central coast?

Hey guys,

I might just throw a tune at my car to try and sort out the cam issue on my 95 LT1. Anybody know of a good LT1 tuner shop around San Luis Obispo? All I can find are Haddad or SP or A&A Corvette, but theyre all in SoCal.

HPTuners will only work on GenIII (LSx) platforms.

Im in Fresno 1hr 45 min from SLO check my sig Methods Motor Works did a bithin job i had got a mail order tune from PCMforless and did 349RWHP they squeezed another 37 RWHP out of my car on the dyno i probably could have hit 400+ with a throttlebody and a little more tuning.I have Tunercats and a couple of .BIN files one for a LT4 Hotcam and another for a CC503 if you have a cable just download Tunercat to get you a base tune atleast.Whats your mods A4 or M6

Oh and Method charges $150 the first hr and $100hr after the first pretty reasonable if you ask me

I have basic mods, just a CAI and cutout at this point. But I think the motor I bought (used, long story) has a big cam in it, and rather than swap in the stock cam I might just try and tune around the big cam. And its an a4, stock coverter.
