Desperately Needing a Dyno Tune
Well, I'm in Dallas, TX this morning getting ready to head over to LG Motorsports for the much needed tune and to take care of a few other problems I've been experiencing with the new motor.
I'm anxious to see what numbers the new G5X4 cam and AFR Heads produce.
James Miles, of Vette Magazine said he was going to try to be there to take some pics for a follow-up story in the their magazine.
Should be fun!
Hoping everything goes well and back on the road home this evening!
I'll try to take some pics and post them later.

Good luck with your tune - BTW, saw a pic of you and your car in the latest CORVETTE magazine in the article about the Fun Fest! You're a celeb, Jim!

Guess I should have had the motor rebuild work done here at LGM to begin with.

Good luck with the motor work Jim. A car that looks that awesome deserves to run as good if not better. I'm sure that Lou will get you fixed right up.

Jim, don't know if you carry a lap-top. Let us Dallas guys know where we can meet you to tip a few cold ones to Cheif Paducah. Wyle is pretty easy to get to, or Plano is right up the tollway from LG's. Lots' of eaterys there...

I ended up having to leave my car with Lou at LG Motorsports to take care of some unexpected problems.
Hope to be picking it back up the first of next week.
If I have time, when I go back to get it,, I would love to get together for a cold one.
