Default W Michigan head work? Dyno?

Met another future W Mich crew member this week. We sewed up the hand that he bashed while lowering his C5. He has never heard of the Corvette Forum!
He was looking for a place that he could dyno the car so he could set a baseline for future mods. He was also looking for a shop that could do some work on his stock heads.
Does he have to go to Detroit to do this or is there someone around here? Seems like I remember someone in Jenison or Hudsonville.
My memory is shot though.
Dude says he likes to go out for ice cream!

the one in saranac is on a dirt road i believe. Ty is in caledonia at 68th and the Beltline, just south of M6.
He has a Dynojet. and offers baseline pulls as well as tuning. He does good work. he actually in the process of tuning the special edition 2010 Berger SS Camaros. GRvette, rippers, and m vet zo6 have had him tune their cars. he has 100% customer satisfaction.

he can be reached at
Ty Mason's Custom Horsepower

Im not sure what kind of head work he's looking for, but he can direct you to a good spot. i know C-Tech Performance has a good reputation.

Baker Engineering Inc in Nunica.

One of the most capable shops in the state, hands down.

ask for TJ

TJ at baker tuned my car. I would never consider going to anybody else. Everybody that works there is awesome. They do a lot of very high end crazy stuff!

When they were tuning my car I popped a boost a pump fuse and didn't have another one. They didn't have on hand that were high enough amp. So one of the guys that worked there went and took one out of his CTS-V Cadillac and gave it to me.
