What're you doing with the car? Why not have Shawn at AED have a go at it?

I wasn't sure if we were working with a push rod motor or not, but you're right. Shawn won't touch an older 5.0.

What type of tuner are you using right now?

Not sure why some of the tuners are not touching pushrods..relatively simple with the MAF and perhaps slightly more difficult with an older 5.0 with the speed density setup. Perhaps contact SCT as that is the tuning software co..they should have a list of competent dealers for their software.

You put a FAST or Holley Dominator system in it, AED or someone like Ben can tune it
