I wish things were a little clearer on this point though.......
You'll never regret being too cautious. Having your tuner double check is a good idea. I just got the tuner kit and towed to the tuner, saved the money on the handheld.
Have fun

Can anyone tell me - how difficult is it to pin the crank??? I just can't believe the LS3 crank snout has no key.........

Thanks very much, Dave F.
not bad, if you do it with the intake off before you put the blower on. just jack the engine up to the fire wall and spread the cradle off the motor mounts. I did it with a right angle drill,
There is a thread on here somewhere about it
