Turns out that the tune I had on my Camaro before was the whole problem, nothing was done to help cooling, transmission wasn't tuned well, and the fuel was running lean, which was messing everything else up too. Even with a rebuilt transmission, the same problems came across, figured that it must be in the tune.

Now that the car's fuel is corrected to run a little more rich, I have a gain in horsepower on a Dynojet (456whp), as opposed to a Mainline Prohub (445whp). Very satisfied with that!

I'm glad to have finally got things settled with the car now, it drives well and keeps cool, all things considered. I am in Arizona, so being 210F in traffic is to be expected, that should all change the moment I install a Mishimoto radiator, situate auxiliary coolers and install a new motor on my passenger side fan, lol.

Sheet for proof! Shout out to Rhett at Black Market Racing in Phoenix for the help.

A bad tune can kill the car and drive ability of the car. Glad it’s all fixed
