Google PCM4Less, you can go to their website and fill out the form with your engine and car specs and send your PCM to them and they can put a tune in it to get you started.
It's getting harder and harder to find anyone who tunes LT1s anymore, that's one of the reason's I moved to the 24x system which uses the LS1 PCM and 8 coils which everyone can tune.

There are NO Lt1 tuners here in Vegas. Now, that said if you happen to convert your Lt1 to the Ls1 24x system or the EDO CONNECTION 24x then I will definitely recommend ZIPPY his shop is on Pecos just north of Sunset.

Someone on the LTX forum told me to check his shop out as well. He had an lt1 that zippy tuned. Do you know if they are any good on the lt1 motors with the stock system? I'd like to do the 24x system but it's pretty expensive!! So I will have to hold off on that right now!!

Re: New member need help with tune!!
Just coincidence but I was looking over my LT1 tunes now that I have TunerCats. Man the tuner that worked my tune didn't do anything to the timing or fueling tables. He just used my adj FPR to raise fuel pressure. It did get me 20 or greater HP though. But he really messed with my trans tables because I requested he changed the shift points. Car still shifts way late and is leaking fluid. So I have to fix the tune he did before I can even get the trans rebuilt.
What I'm saying is I'm sorry John but I haven't had any luck here in Vegas for the LT1 tune. But I have heard of good tuning from the Horsepower Connection down in Lake Havasu AZ : Home
Good luck and let us know what you find.

Sorry to here that about your tune. The tune is probably the biggest problem I've had on my car. I can't believe out of all the people in Vegas no one tunes lt1 motors lol. I love my car to death but man this makes me want to get a ls1!!!
If I can find someone I will definitely let you guys know!!
