    You guys who get shops to work on your truck, how do you manage?

    Ugh I hate it. Dropped my truck at Champion Motors yesterday to get the DBW issues figured out, and to get it fine tuned on the dyno, and I'm hating every minute of it. No one has ever touched that truck except for me. I trust the shop, they have a great reputation, a sponsor on LS1Tech with a huge following in the Canadian section. They set the fastest C6 record in 09, and still hold Canada's fastest IRS 'Vette record. But I still hate it.

    But anyway, any Dyno guesses? 5.3 w/ 222/226 .598 EPS cam. Patriot 59cc 243's, through stock manifolds cats and exhaust.

    I do, just haven't got around to buying the rest of the exhaust. Good cats are expensive.

    325/340. what's your compression gonna be with the 59 cc heads? Also, I will only take mine to a shop if it is something I can't fix. I'd rather teach myself how to do things rather than Pay someone else to do it.
