Yeah can get a reflash but it doesn't beat a dyno tune IMO. All engines are not created equal and without a dyno... you can't really fine tune it.

Plus if you get a UTEC, you can always go FI and keep it.

Or maybe the valve body has debris in it. I have a stock trans that is almost installed and will then break in the motor and do some street tuning. Not to mention my wife is due with #4 in mid March. I doubt I will be ready to do dyno work for a few months, time is just way to tight for me


Damn man i didn't even know you were building the motor! I'd like to come check it out sometime.

BTW congrats to you and your wife on the baby
