I'll pay extra to get it tuned, price or $$$ isn't a issue.. Just need it asap, I've tried many places and none are available

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

From what I hear they don't touch pushrod motors.

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.

It's a turbo 331ci sn95, wish aed would tune pushrods.. Can't find anyone to tune it, car idles poorly after install. If anyone knows who can tune, let me know. I'm willing to pay up to 1800

Will a FAST system work to tune it?

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
