I just finished testing the injector wiring and everything checks out. All cylinders wired properly and get proper voltage and have very low resistance on the ecu - injector wires.

I just tuned the car with a 6.0 tune with the Camaro fuel and it had the same problem. It's lean in Bank 2 ONLY.
Looks like Bank 1 is okay. What would cause something like this? I know now that it isn't in the tune. It's a problem with either wiring or spark or something.

Tonight I checked and tested all coil pack wires. Power, grounds, lo ref, signal etc... all is good. Tested the coil packs by hooking up multimeter to lo ref and signal and reading resistance. All were identical.
Ran the car down the road a little bit and finally threw an engine misfire detected code p0300.
Any thoughts?

I have logged a bunch of runs during the misfires and I believe it to be a problem in bank 2 because the Oxy sensor in bank 2 reads lean during the misfires.
How do I figure out exactly which one is the culprit?

In the vcm scanner where you select the pids that you want to log right click and go to "insert". You will then find the misfire pids in the engine diagnostic section I believe.

I used the pids for misfires and found that the only real way to get it to misfire was to add fuel. I noticed that ALL of the cylinders were misfiring.
here's a couple more bits of information:
1: I do not have rear O2's.
2: I have the power wires from the injectors and the coils on both banks tied together powered from the same battery source. I believe the factory wiring calls for separate.
