I don't recall the numbers for the canned tunes.
Just remember everyone's truck is different and responds differently to custom tunes, just depends on your driving style and HEX code.
Remember these are trucks not mustangs!
The biggest bang for your buck is a supercharger! But they are expensive and you have to stick with 91+oct gas.

Thanks, you always seem to eb the first to respond to me, those seem like good numbers, would love to S/C it but I can't afford that.

If I can squeeze out 30HP and 30TQ, and 1-2MPG I will be happy, don't plan on racing it, but I am looking for a 3rd gen camaro as a play toy.

Throw in a 383 with a 800CFM Holly, now thats something I can work on easily and get some big power from, I was raised learning about cars with carbs and how to squeeze power from a SB chevy.
