Default ECU programming

Can you have your ecu sent out to someone to program it to the specs of a heads and cam project I plan on doing this coming winter. Nobody around my town that I know of does ecu programming for vettes. And I dont want to spend the money on ls1 edit. Cant I just take out the ecu and tell the people my specs of heads and cam and let them do the programming. :confused:

Absolutely. That said, it will not be prefect though. I have done the programming by mail and it is a PIA and it was never right. IMO, without a wideband dyno, you CAN'T get the tuning perfect. IN fact, I am so uncertain about doing it by mail, I fear damage to the car.....lean conditions, etc!

I got a wide band dyno just nobody to tune the car. I'll have to ask some of these other f-body owners that live around me.
