    Data logs will tell more than the tune in many cases.

    You'll need to do changes to the MAF and VE for the cam and long tube changes. So a wideband is required for that. Don't be surprised if you don't have big enough injectors either. Timing is safe for starters, while you get things squared away, it'll probably be in the low 20's for good power when you are done.

    Also shifting a stock 4L60e at 6,600rpm will make it want to grenade pretty fast. Keep the first gear shift below 6,000rpm if you want it to last.
    2016 Silverado CCSB 5.3/6L80e, not as slow but still heavy.

    If you don't post your tune and logs when you have questions you aren't helping yourself.
