Yes, it's bad. There may be a multitude of reasons why it is happening.

When you put cheap regular gas in your LT1 you get angry!
When you get angry you go try to sell your LT1 for 9k.
When you attempt that, lulz and embaressment happen.
When emabaressments happen you try to get an LS1.
When you get an LS1 people think your fast.
When people think your fast, people wanna see how fast.
And when people wanna see how fast you are, you lose to an LT1.
Don’t lose to a lame old LT1!

Oh lawd.

PCMforless, stay away from any local "tuner" that claims to tune LT1s.

Nothing in particular, aside from the fact that GOOD LT1 tuners are very few and far between. Most shops don't even bother with the platform anymore.
