Tuning write ups

Found a couple links for people who would like to learn a little bit more about the basics of tuning with the HPT and what not like myself, the 1st link is for a jbody but it does give you a basic idea of what is being used, the 2nd is if anyone is interested in speed density/MAF tuning. Feel free to add any HELPFUL information if you have any as im sure their are others than just me who would like to learn some more

Np, 383 Stroker made a kick ass thread with like 10 different timing tables he tested dyno run after dyno run on the same day.

I'm going to try and convince him to rehost all his pictures in that thread.

He made an extremely good effort. There is still even more room for improvement, but it shows a variety.
