LT1-edit and LS1-edit are both VIN locked, unless you want to spend major bucks for the unlimited versions.

Tunercat is not VIN locked.

Ah, yeah, you're right. I see that OBDII Tunercat is now called the "JET Dynamic Spectrum Tuner", and is sold exclusively through JET Performance Products. According to their site:
DST part number 14005 will program the following vehicles:
1996-2000 GM Trucks & SUV's with Vortec 4.3, 5.0, 5.7 & 7.4L.
1999-2006 GM LS1 Trucks & SUV's with 4.3, 4.8, 5.3, 6.0 & 8.1L.
1996-1997 Camaro, Firebird, Corvette & Impala SS LT-1.
1997-2004 Camaro, Firebird & Corvette LS-1.
2004 GTO LS1.
2004-2005 Cadillac CTS-V.

The DST Single User Software Package (part # 14005) will allow you to program 2 different vehicles from the list above. Licenses to program additional vehicles can be obtained from JET directly for $150.00 per vehicle. To obtain additional licenses call 800-535-1161.
Now does that "2 different vehicles" mean, say, 1 F-body and 1 SUV... or could it be 2 different F-bodies?

I'm sure it can be two different F-body's, the point is you only get 2 licenses for buying there already jacked up priced program
