Default Dyno Tune

Is there anyone in the Hamilton area that can dyno tune the LS2 in my '36 coupe? I heard of a place in Dundas but they don't return calls. Any other recommendations?
I'd like to use Champion but they are too far from where I live.

It shouldn't take more than 1 hr on the dyno with the right software.

What a great excuse for maybe one last ride on such a beautiful day.
I bet the ride home would put a smile on your face.

I'd love for you guys to tune the car. The only problem is the car isn't running well enough to make the trek to your location. I live over by Hwy 6, south of the 401. I don't want to get stranded on the 401.

Ain't nobody in Hamilton or the area that you'd want to let try and tune your LSx engine,.... You gonna hafta get it out to somebody, trailer it or drive it, sucks eh.....
But it used to be worse.... Not long ago we'd wait for Chuck Cow to come up, or send him our ECMs....

If you have CAA you can get them to flatbed it to Champion and then drive it home. When you call them tell them you need a flatbed and that the car has transmission issues.

Dankhts, yep, Hamilton has some issues.
Pompitup, Good suggestion. My weather window of opportunity is closing fast.

Or if you have a truck, a U-Haul car trailer is only $50 for the day.

Hey there. If you're in a pinch, I make a wideband remote tuning setup that works anywhere in the world.

Give me a ring.

I ended up having Dave at Da Silva Motorsport tune my coupe. Talk about service! Manny came and picked up my coupe Saturday morning and Dave had it set up on the dyno in no time. Fuel starvation was the problem. I also discovered my fuel tank is leaking. I ordered a new one with a built in fuel pump today.
What a shop too! I'd love to have any one of the cars in there to add to my garage!
I can't say enough about Manny and Dave. Great guys and great service.
