Default Please HELP any ideas??

Hey guys i would appreciate any kinds of help yall might have to offer. I got a 98 Camaro small cam, th-350 , bolt ons etc.... The car sat for about 2 years i tried starting it and it wasn't getting fuel. i changed the fuel pump and it starts on the first crank. The car seems like it runs and idles great untill it gets warmed up. Then if you get on the gas hard it will start to flash the converter and then it bogs really bad almost sounds like the motor dies. Any ideas why the car is cutting out and bogging so bad. Spark plugs, spark plug wires, coil packs, injectors, Fuel pump might be bad, tuning maybe???????? any thoughts? the car was tuned and running good before it was put up. Also this might be a dumb question but does the car loose its tune if there is not a battery hooked up after a while. :confused:

thanks for any help have a good day.

It will not loose the tune if the battery is disconnected, sounds like you may have very dirty injectors that is where I would start get then out and have them cleaned.
