Just being there is worth the price of admission.  _________________ Steve 96BBB 28K 3.42 Bolt-ons 95BBB 100K 3.73 383 New DD...already broke fixt the 4L60E twice 95 Black WB4 Hole...ee...grail 96 Black WB4 No holes in this 95BBB 189K 3.08 Old DD Stolen...by Matt.

I think everyone just sends them out. Mod day normally means bring a small project- body, mechanical, etc to do on your car. Or, if you're like Crovo, hold a wrench every so often until Al comes over to help while the rest of use heckle. | |

What Justin said. I know you can get software and a special cable for your laptop, but its not something I'd even do myself. For the equipment, it's a few hundred bucks. To send it out for a PROFESSIONAL tune, it's a few hundred bucks. Damned if you do damned if you don't. I sent mine out (bought a core from a member here to keep my factory tune). I'm very satisfied with the basic tune pcmforless did, even tho I don't have a ton of mods, shift points, line pressure, timing, etc etc do help even with a close to stock base. | |

Minus newicks. we just hang out and BS most of the day. The garage is open so if you need a lift to do something you might not be able to do at home. | |

Do you have LT1 or TBI? Its the 265, fuel injected.....I WISH it was LT1...How do you feel about a light green engine? I have a MINT (no pun intended) lt1 engine with all the BS deleted, new gaskets, and a PCM already tuned. I'll even include the "cut down" wiring harness PM me if interested. Thread jack aside, I have every sat and sun off now. If I can finish my new project by then I will be making an appearance. Strictly to BS, and help (by help I mean point out what your doing wrong lol) | |
