Cartek never even returned my email.
So, I scratched them off my list.

Sorry Wayne88,
I sent you a PM.

First off I would like to say hello. I 've never posted. I don't have a vet but do have experience with cartek tunes. They tuned my lt1 ta after I had a mail order tune. With the mail order tune my car was running 12-7 all day long and 11.8s on the juice. Now when I had cartek tune it juilo said I was getting valve float above 5300rpm. Once I put new springs on and he finished the tune the car was running 12-3-4s all motor and 11.4 on the juice. My point is I would've never known I was getting valve float if I didn't have it dynoed. I was very pleased with cartek. So get it dynoed by cartek I think you'll be happy with them.
Joe
