iv seen them read of these cracking after 2 winters and iv seen GY supercars crack badly after 1. I bet Joe Basil wont be putting new tires on Z06 and leaving them on the lot over winter anymore.

looking for a GM tuner with LT1 experience. no dynojets needs to be a dyno that can tune for drivability not just a educated guess. J&J Speed Shop is to busy to get me in. The only other place i can find online is RDP in ohio 185miles 1 way. No i will not do a narrow band email tune.

I had RDP do my 5th gen dyno tune. Steve is really good at squeezing out every last bit of power and takes his time to make sure it's right. The drive to Cleveland is a pain though but it's worth it. He even gave me his wife's SUV to drive home over the weekend when he wasn't done doing my dif gears!

New Era Performance in Rochester is another really good shop too!

New Era has a dynojet. they tuned my 1st cammed Camaro but drive ability had problems. thats when I learned about dynos and that you cant tune drivability on a dyno jet because it doesnt have a brake to put a load on the engine like the car does. I really wanted E85 spent $300 on it and another $147 on gas cans just to bring it to the dyno. should have just bought 2 cans a E85 race gas i quess.
Are there any other within a days driving distance. 200 or so miles
I know that the guys that in my Upstate Camaro group have their work done somewhere near Syracuse and really like the results. Not sure what he has for a dyno but I can find out for you .
