      32lb injectors? stock converter? shorty headers? those wheels and a stock rear end? stock untouched heads but new pistons?

      When you say the heads are bone stock, did you at least upgrade the valve train? I would hope so.

      For those unfamiliar with the cam specs -
      Specs on cam:
      gross valve lift is:.584in .579ex, on 1.6rr
      duration @.050 is in242 ex248
      lobe separtion: 113.0
      I've never heard of anyone running that cam on anything other than a 383 stroker... That's one hella aggressive cam for shorty headers, stock heads, and a stock converter...

          Seems like the classic case of buying the biggest cam possible.

                    Needs ported heads with bigger valves and ported intake. MUST HAVE REALLY GOOD VALVE SPRINGS. Really really needs converter and gear. Long tubes would be best and a really good tune. 32lb injectors tuned right with the right fuel pressure will work.
                    Not gonna make a ton of power with your stock parts but sure will sound good below 1500 rpm.
                    Good luck

                      The scary part is if you're driving with 32lb injectors and completely untuned, are you atleast calibrated for the larger injectors? I dumped 2 quarts of gas into my oil driving my car only 80 miles because I upgraded to 30lb injectors and ran it too long untuned that it washed the cylinders and fugged my whole engine up.

                          i have bigger valve springs with pro magnum roller rockers i had to get taller valve covers because there so tall but other than that the car runs excellent and i had my buddy hook it up to the tunercats program and he did the timing as best he could since i dont have a wide band and i dont have the money yet to take it to dyno or do more upgrades everybody says have fun trying to get my car to idle but i havent had an issue yet it runs like brand new and yes i had the computer changed over for bigger injectors i just got all that stuff from a buddy as a package deal and my plain is to take the whole drive train out in 2 months from front to back and have her ready in bout 2 years as a whole different car i hope thats my goal
                          what kind of heads?
                          what kind of headers?

                            car looks sick bro. if it runs and drives fine, don't fix what isnt broken. i took my car to a shop for a tune with a small cam and they still dumped a quart of gas into the oil. now im all messed up
