Re: please help me please

The stock 02 sensor is bolted in the drivers side exhaust manifold, with headers it is in the same location usually a little lower, this is were a heated 02 sensor is preferable.

Vapor canister is a usful fuel vapor catching device, purpose is to use the fuel to fuel the engine instead of evaporating/wasting it in the atmosfere.
Going by the description, the engine will work wery well as a DD too, another reson to keep the vapor canister functional.

Tune, either learn and DIY or pay for a coustom tune.
For DIY, http://dynamicefi.com/ is the way to go.

Re: please help me please

Isn't the 1989 350 a roller block? Why a flat tappet cam - don't you need a roller cam?
