Tom (http://www.projectcamaro.com/badls1.htm), my car actually has a full tune on it right now from him. He really know's what he's doing, he just finished an LS2 408ci build about two weeks ago. Oh and he tuned Jesse's Z28 after his cam install as well.
He's also doing the install for me.

Man that's awesome. You lucked out. It will def. be a busy weekend. Do you have a bung set up for A/F tuning? I actually perfer tuning while you are driving around rather than for peak power. Makes it really fun to drive on the street. Some tuners I have spoke with prefer it too. You got to get April 14th off and cruise down with us and meet everyone. I hope to see your car there.

Yeah it's great. He actually emailed me when I said I was looking for someone to install some 4.10's several months ago. I'm suprised he still talked to me afterwards because I really grilled him making sure he truely knew what he was doing. Then I found other people had had done work for so I called all of them up and talked to them and I have yet to have one person say anything but great stuff about him.
The plan is to have the wideband 02 put in on Friday by a local exhaust shop. I agree about the street tuning, I really prefer it because I'm not a drag racer so I care more about the under the curve power and he will be able to really get that part to pull hard for me.
I've talked to him serveral times about if I should come up Friday or stay until Sunday to get everything done but he keeps telling me he's 100% sure he'll be able to get everything done in one day (a long day he tells me LOL) but still in one day. I just can't wait to hear the first time we start it up after the cam install.

According to weather.com it's suppose to be 46 and partly cloudy with a 0% chance of rain. Sounds like good weather to let her open up on the interstate. To bad the cops on the WI side of the interstate nail you for just barely going over the limit.

Actually I had an exhaust leak last night so I spent all night replacing my header gaskets so I didn't have a chance to get excited.


Well the cam is now installed. I'll try to get a clip up tonight but if I can't it'll be up by tomorrow for sure.
Jesse called Tom(the installer) right after we finished the cam install so he know's but I guess I'll let you guys know as well. I forgot to bring my wheel key's with me so he couldn't take the rear wheels off so I don't have the 4.10's installed. I'll be going over to his place on Monday night to get them installed. I feel like an idiot but at least it's now cammed.
