Default 1998 c1500 question

Hi, Im new to this forum but have a question hopefully you all can answer. I have a 1998 c1500. It has the 5.0 305 motor in it and have never been impressed with it. Motor just recently went out and im in the process of swapping motors. I am putting in the 5.7 350 vortech motor for my year of truck so it is a direct swap I know.. I figured it would be best to get my computer reprogrammed to get the best resukts out of the new motor and plus maybe a lil more power... but do any of you guys know a good company or website that could reprogram my computer .. just looking for someone who does good work and can get me the best results... any help would be appreciated thanks...

From what I have heard on here, 75% of the members here will say goto http://www.blackbearperformance.com/

Don't actually have any experience with them myself, but they have some good feedback on here, and I will be taking my tuning needs to them when I get to that point.
