He is GREAT to deal with and will continue his excellent customer service long after he has made a sale to you. I highly recommend him and the SCT programmer! He'll give free tuning adjustments after he has sold a programmer to you. The only time he would actually charge for tuning is for major changes down the road like forced induction. Ask him about it. He's very up front with you and knows a lot about how to tune these trucks!

I will be close to the 3000$ mark plus tranny rebuild kit and exhaust/headers. The stock heads will be fine. Some of them have craked but most of that is due to too much heat, because they are running too lean. Also if they were ever to crack I can adress it then. But thanks for the heads up, I am always open to any suggestions.
