Does your frakenstein run 2g pistons with higher compression? If so you deffinitly need some kind of data logging and tuning software as the 1g timming maps are kind agressive for the higher compression. Also safc is proly not the best choice to adjust your fuel at this point.:thumb:
 
Are you using a nb or wb02? are u sure the settings are correct in the SAFC?? whats your base fp also.
 
my afpr is set to 35psi and like i said the safc2 is zero all the way across the board high and low throttle it will not let me rev on it AT ALL i hit gas it wants to die and wide band wont even register it after 18 and it peggs there instantly

and yes it has the 2g pistons
 
You are ruining your new engine. I bet the cylinder walls have already been washed out, and glazed. Not to mention the fuel in your oil, and possibility of spinning a bearing.

Running 750's with no fuel compensation is just dumping fuel into the engine. To the point it wont even burn, and is causing the wideband to peg lean from 0 combustion of oxygen. The sensor reads oxygen, not fuel, so blowing unburnt fuel out the exhaust shows as lean, just like wot misfires.

Put the stock injectors back in, a safc wont compensate properly for 750's anyway.
 
I have only run the new motor for about ten minutes, Ill throw the stock injectors back in now and see what difference it makes. Thanks

Ok so i checked the TPS sensor and fuel filter they are both ok. I also switched back to the stock injectors and it is doing the exact same thing.

No.

OP, how did you install your fuel pump? Did you use submersible hose? Stock lines and hat?
