If the car is the '86 in your mini-sig many tuners update to the '89 $6E mask.

Re: what base tune?
Agreed with the above. I like $6E stuff. ARAP isnt a bad choice but i'd modify that timing table alittle before using...just to be safe since its aggressive and has alot of timing in it.
Adjust the base idle speed and injectors in the bin and try getting it to start up on that. Tweak from there. My 383 I used a AUJL bin from an 89 L98 camaro. Worked great. For my buddy's car, we started with a ARAP bin with modded timing table. For a couple of vettes I helped tune, ARAP also worked well. Variety of motors ranging from 350's to 395's
