Gave up on my TBI and went Carb
Long story short, I had my 454 rebuilt. I pulled it, stripped it, and dropped it off. I told them all stock components and specs. What I got back was flat top pistons and a different cam. I was cool with it not understanding the effects a cam change would have on the TBI. It was hell from that point on. Running super rich and not idling well. I went thru every sensor, purchased software, cables, and such. Nothing worked. I had a Eldelbrock 750 sitting on a shelf along with an extra HEI. Today I picked up a fuel pressure regulator and made the swap. Holy cow, the truck completely rocks now. Not running rich anymore and has tons of power. Idles real nice. I'm very happy with the results. All the TBI stuff will be sold!
