Need my LT1's ECM programmed.. where to send it?

Hey guys,
I'm about to start putting my 97 LT1 into my 85 IROC. I just need to have the VATS removed and have the transmission stuff removed so I can use my 700R4.

Where can I send the ECM off to have this done? Price?

Thanks!

Ahh.. madz28.com looks like a winner. I like that plug n play OBDI conversion they advertise.

Thanks dude.

Bryan at PCMforless is probably the best bet. He can pretty much nail the tune just by telling him all that's been done to the car.

If the car is stock, go with the cheapest, no difference in quality whatsoever.. when the mods happen it gets more difficult to mail order tune.

Only thing about madz28 is they require your PCM, PCMforless only sends the file that you can upload into your PCM.

The actual link to PCMforless is PCMforless.com

madz28.com sent me a tune through email.

Either way, converting to obdi would be a very good thing.

I don't need a custom tune...the only mod going on the car right away is headers.. I just need some extra BS removed from the PCM.

but it's going to cost as much as a tune, might as well gain the "10 HP" they claim

Or you can buy the LT1edit for around $400 and do it all yourself.
