I didn't get a chance to look at it last night, but if you need help or want a more experienced hand to make changes I do email tuning through hptuners. My forum sponsor account is Atomic Performance

Shoot me an email at atomicfandp at gmail.com if you are interested!

If i needed better valve springs I would think texas speed would have quoted me on them before they shipped me the heads, since they spec out everything for me. I could be wrong though.

Been spending what time i have going through my tune. A big shout out to Atomic as he helped me a lot and I learned a great deal about tuning. I am now moving to upgrade my gears from 3.42 to 4.10 and a eaton LSD. Hopefully get it done this weekend but not rushing it as gears can be tricky and need to be done correct. Any tips or gotcha's are welcome for a stock 10 bolt GM 8.6

Tuning is pretty intimidating to me, not being a computer guy and all.
Being able to go through it yourself, how do you feel about it so far?

Well it was intimidating to me as well but I had atomic walk me through getting my base tune done. I took good notes so i could apply it to my next build or if i need to retune mine for upgrades. It feels better than it did before so im happy.

Default rear end is done

Went for a drive and all is well. Got some new ebay special rotors from brake motive, from little research they are better than what I had. Will need to hook hptuners back up to it and adjust shift points
