cant say i would go with his tune over my nelson tune (never experienced his tune) but i would definately trust him with anything he wanted to do to my truck. spray that 100k old motor and wory about your tranny instead of the motor

actually the tranny went already in april of 2003 i was supposed to start the fire dept on april 7 and on april 4 one day after my bday the tranny crapped out. i was sitting at a light stepped on the gas and nothing i mean nothing no foward gears no reverse gear. i had only like 40k on it at the time so i put a remanufactured gm unit in thank God for extended warranty cuz i only paid like 400 bucks for it. so the tranny only has like 60 or just under on it. cant you just do a shift kit or do you have to do a full rebuild on it? also i think i will try to go the parts way to do it does it really matter what i do first i mean since i have intake and exaust would headers be the best to start with?
