    Thanks guyz...

    i was pretty impressed with the numbers myself. My friend dynoed his truck before me and got 190whp un-tuned / 240whp tuned, the only extra mod i had was the LS1 cam.. Best thing i ever did
    All dyno tuning was done by Modular Performance a local shop we got here.

    Update:-

    Sup guyz, its been a while...

    I just orderd the pacesetter LT's for $420 shipped.. they'll be here soon, but i was wonderin would i need to retune the truck..

    my truck has been tuned usin HP tuner/Dyno at a local shop, but i asked the owner if i need to re-tune it after LT's are in and he said "no need"

    So, do i just save up for another tune/dyno and force him to tune it...

    any help wold be appreciated.

    Cheers!
