Burn me a chip or two
Would anyone like to sell me a custom chip? The engine has underwent some changes and would like a chip to supplement them. Have an 86 with headers , injectors, etc

What's involved in etc.?
Why don't you use the money you'd pay someone to get the equipment to burn your own. Long distance tuning rarely works as well as hands on.

Re: Burn me a chip or two (Aaron's 87)
Sorry I have not gotten back to the forum sooner, lots of bad "Shtuff" happening lately. As far as the chip, probably just don't want to bother burning my own with all the other irons in the fire already. The etc on the vette engine would be 360 cubes, edelbrock heads, crane roller cam, 24pound injectors, SLP runners and ported and polished intake, 10-1 pistons, long tubes no cats, AFPR. Can we make a chip to optimize this combo?

We are not looking for a record breaking drag machine, just want to make sure it runs correctly with the new setup. I think I have someone lined up ho help.

In my opinion, running correctly involves scanning/datalogging a running vehicle in many common driving conditions and making necessary changes. Good Luck.

10 hp may not make a difference, but engine destroying knock, fast idling, stalling, off idle stumbles, or other drivability problems might upset someone used to driving stock cars (or well tuned modified cars). From what I've seen, mail order tuning is a roll of the dice. Good Luck.
