need help tuning 400 sbc with super ram
I'm new to the tuning scene and man it shows.
I'm running a 400 small block with stock internals (rebuilt) procomp heads 190 with 64 cc gasket match ported to felpro 1207 intake gaskets, comp cam 280xfi .552in .547ex 113 lobe seperation with 1.6 roller rockers and matched springs and push rods. Fully ported super ram with bbk 52mm throttle body and tpis afpr set at 45psi, and 30lb injectors. Trans is a 700r4 2800 stall b&m torque converter klone steels alto reds kevlar bands transgo valve body and shift kit. Out back is a 3.27 9 bolt posi for now.
Everything is run by accel gen 6. having problems with fuel curves its running rich .
I was wondering if anyone has a setup close to or like this that could help me out or even a place to purchase a program to run this setup
thanks for any help or comments

Re: need help tuning 400 sbc with super ram
Set base timming to factory spec of 6 degs, tune timing.
I know some disagree but I like higher fuel PSI. You will get a better more complete burn from higher fuel psi due to smaller droplets. I run 47-51 in all my cars. Again you will need to tune it for best results.
Either find a friend or very good shop to teach ya or do it.
Dont give in to carbs!!!

Re: need help tuning 400 sbc with super ram
is this a maf or sd setup? sfi or batch fire?
when you change your timing you must let the computer know the correct timing.

I know it is fun to start pulling levers and magically hope for power to appear, but this will tell you how to do it on purpose.
