Hi I am new to this forum. i have had a 2002 monte carlo ss for the past 6-7 years now. i originally had twenties on it with eibach springs. then i got the mod bug and my na motor was then running er rockers, offroad down pipe, k&n intake, hv3, plog, and tune. that made it much better than factory but still wasnt enough for my liking. i upgraded the handling a bit after the na build with gm performance sway bars front and rear. i got my hands on a L32 with 70k for $800 and started planning my next step going sc. it took awhile for me to finally jump into that build but last september i got it in the car. with the L32 came gasket matched top end, ported inlet on the gen v, xp cam, 105 valve springs, viton valve seals, rollmaster single roller timing set, n* throttle body, lq4 maf sensor, 42.5 injectors, smoothflow pulleys mps with a 3.4 pulley, sd headers, hd diff upgrade. after a base tune the car ran great but i had a tps issue that ended up being traced down to a bad adapter harness. with the base tune my car put down 279.7 hp in feb. now i have been trying to do the final tune my self and maybe drop down to a 3.25 pulley and run my water meth kit with it. just been having a hard time with the tune its been alot of baby steps for sure.
