LTX FTW
Hey everyone, my name is Brad and I'm a long-time LT1 owner. I bought my first LT-powered f-body in high school, followed by two more. I'm currently working on my 95 Firehawk (#326). I put a small shot of nitrous and sprayed, untuned, to what I believe is a blown head gasket. I was building a junkyard LQ4 to put in it, but I decided to keep the Firehawk a numbers matching car. I'm going to do LE2 heads/cam, TB, LTs, ORY and a tune. Hoping to hit that 400 mark and then leave the kit on it for an additional bump if needed. It's a T-56 car, so I don't know that it will ever see a track consistently, but I'd like to be competitive at the LTX shootout. I'm hoping to wrap everything up early this summer and will be looking for a good tune. I'm in the Wichita, KS area if anyone knows of a good tuner around here. I've seen good things with a mail order, but I'd prefer a good dyno tune. I'm from Tulsa, so I'm familiar with Ed, but it looks like he is only doing mail order tunes these days. Anyways, I look forward to chatting with you all.

Hey everyone, I don't have many pics, but here is a shot on the way home from Ohio. I started an album with some other pics, and I'll find the rest soon. Thanks for the tuner info, and I'll get a build thread started soon. It looks like Moe is an San Antonio, correct? IMAG0202.jpg

To be honest, I'm not sure I remember. I think I knew about the shootout from YouTube before I knew about the forum. After switching up plans and abandoning the LS swap, I needed a good, reliable source of LT1 info.
