Just make sure you have AAA and it'll do okay as a daily if you like a stiff suspension and uncomfortable seats when going long distance.

You're probably better off adjusting the rpm table instead of the coolant table actually so that way you don't have to worry about cold WOT being off.

I think they all have some sort of tick one way or another. I wouldn't worry about it. I've never heard a Chevy motor that was completely quiet.

You should have your MAF tables tuned correctly first so it makes it a lot easier. Tuning AFR by RPM is tough.

You should invest in an AFR gauge. When I modified my Corvette, the AFR was like 17:1 in open loop, and 14.7:1 in closed loop. So you may need to bring the open loop back to 14.7:1 when hot.
