    Yes I have heard good things about Manny, I can't do too much right now but I have a good starting point anyway, The cam will be first on my list when I get home. I also just bought an AEI front spoiler from Corvette Central. I'm getting Corvette withdrawl over here, I looked up Grand Sport, they have website so I will probably get in touch with them when I get home. Thanks for your help.. Keep in touch ( use my home email calver3@hotmail.com)

    Manny's a great guy no doubt about it - I'd use him again for sure... my cam is hardly lumpy at all, just a bit, sounds good through the long tubes and 3" high flow cats etc though, it's only a 220/220/581/581/114 - but car runs very strong and pulls like wild even with a 2.73 gear... I wanted a cam that would'nt force me to go to a high stall and a 3.42 with my A4 so I picked that one with the help and advice from Mike at Vengence Racing..
    as I recall, Grand Sport quoted me a price within about 100 of Manny - I think they were 1500 for everything, ...

    Oh, forgot, Manny charged me about 1400 total to install heads/cam/long tubes/ud pully/oil pump/yella terra rockers/and a bunch of other related and non related stuff that I can't quite seem to remember it all right now LOL...he does great work, a very particular and fussy guy, if I was closer to Grand Sport than him, I may well have used them instead though...

    Hey Pat, apparently you're closer to Port Perry than you are to any other tuners - I hear of a good one there... I think it's Grand Sport Motors.... I hear a lot of good things about them..
    Manny at ECP in Cambridge did my cam/heads/headers etc install, a bit cheaper than Grand Sport, John at Westport Motors in Mississauga did my dyno tune, but since then I've improved my tune quite a bit with help from Mike at Vengence racing in Atlanta...been playing around with HP tuners and a wide band set up my buddy has...running better all the time, and a bit more room for improvement yet... maybe next year I'll go with 3.42 and a stall.. but runs strong now......
