Question Need help!

Ok been talking to Allen through email's trying to get a time set up for a dyno tune. What can I install before the tune. Can I install the transgo and servos on the stock tune or does it need to be tuned first? Also can I install the LT's and ory before the tune. I was thinking I need to wait till the o2's are turned off to install them. The cam will sit in the box for now Anyone in the Beaumont/ Houston or in between want to help with a shift kit

the more you get installed the better, but if not then you can allways go back afterward, If you do the shift kit read the instruction very well,the headers you can put them on, you can have them put the rear 02 bungs in, I have mine still installed with the long tubes, why not put the cam in or have allen do it there. what cam do you have to put in??

You can install all of it and then have Allen tune for everything at once, the truck will run just fine.

I have the TR 220 112 cam and 918's, still need to get pushrods. I was just not sure about driving that far without it being tuned, but I may carry it with me. Kind of limited on spending right now till the wedding(April 22). Never installed a cam before. Only worked on older carbed cars. I figured I would upgrade to the ls2 timing chain also( is it necessary).

sounds like you are getting ready for a rematch I'll be installing the same cam too!!! are you going to put a converter in too?? cause you will definately need one with that cam.... I dont think the LS2 timing chain is necessary... there are some people that will do cam swaps in the houston area, pm kevin he'll hook you up.!
