Default DFW Tuner help!

Does anyone have any ideas on who I should take my LT4 to to get the best tune? I am only minutes away from completing my build and want it to be tuned right. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

You will get any number of answers from this forum. My vote is for Matt @21 Century in Addison or Anthony @ LG.

I called them and the guy I talked to said Scott was no longer there. The software for my engine was his and it left with him, apparently. Finding a shop that can tune this engine is turning into a real quagmire.

Sorry bout that. Just had some work done there not long ago. We'll look around and try to locate Scott W. He is the guy that knows these cars. He has tuned my built LT1 and several C4 Callaways.

Why not hire him to tune your car on the dyno in the shop? Maybe the shop can call him at home and set this up for you.

No luck getting a hold of Scott. However, did find a place called "True Street Motorsports" that says they can do the job.

Does anyone here know anything about them?

[edit] Found him! Turns out, he lives about a half mile from me.

Thanks for the kind words but actually we do not have the software and cables any more to do the L98/LT1/4 cars anymore.

Carb'd cars and LS based setups, not a problem at all.

Moe Bailey in San Antonio is the best. Your wasting your time finding a good LT tuner in DFW. He does dyno tune in Waco and kileen.

I have worked with Moe and he is great. He has been to my shop a few times tuning 396 LT1's and he can work some magic.
