A few Q's, if I may?
I assume you do this yourself - at home or shop? What is the turnaround time assuming you have all the parts on hand? Will it run like crap without a tune? What part of CT are you in? Thanks!

CT Corvette LLC, the shop is in Enfield CT; turnaround would be 1/2 days, I have all the GM parts on hand, the cam kits are ordered on an 'as needed' basis(too many different grinds)

I've had MS3's fire right up and drive 3 hours back to the Cape(Mass), I'm working with a local dyno(dynojet 224) and should have a solution for a complete tuned package in the future

I can tell you the Fast 90/LS2 tbody would be another $1000, AFR/ETP heads another 1200-1400, and LT's(Kooks, LG, Dynatech) aren't part of the deal($1000-1800)
the TSP combo with the MS3 will typically yield 430-440rwhp(M6 3.42's)

I am strongly thinking about doing the MS4 pkg.
How soon can you do this, Id like to drive up to CT in the am and bring it back to LI that PM. Possible?
How do you feel on the new MS4 and a weekend car?

You think the MS4 would start up and drive well enough to get back home for tuning?

Keep me updated when you get a ms4 kit.

I've never installed the MS4(released <2weeks ago), every cam I've installed(C5,C6,F-body) has always started and drove fine

Just talked to Jason@TSP, they are expecting shipment of the MS4 grind any day

Tempting offer for when I come up to White Plains, NY in August...
I said I would do the cam swap myself but that was before I installed the headers and killed my back.
