Default HELP! Problems with new 347

ok, fired up the new motor last night, everything sounds good, no leaks, rattles, ect. (knock on wood).

its a 347, prc heads, big cam, ect.

the problems im having:

have to open the throttle some when i start the car(blade already has larger hole and has screw cranked out).

car will idle fine at like 1100(big cam), but then out of nowhere it goes to like to 300 rpm(seems like when it goes out out of open loop, but car is locked in open loop??).

and when it does idle way down, i can push the gas and it wont rev. wtf? it will take 4-5 seconds before rpm will rise.


basically the only sensors it could be pointing to, would be the MAP, TPS, IAC, IAT, KNOCK, CAM, CRANK. now obviously we can rule out a few.

not cam/crank- car will run good when it does run, throttle response is awsome.

not maf- tune doesnt use it

not iac- i dont see why this would be doing it.

not o2s- tuned out

not tps- unplugged it and went SUPER rich. so must be working

not knock- not

not iat- shouldnt matter

only one i can think of is the MAP. i had to extend it for the ls2 intake, that might be messing things up???

im not sure what else to look for.

Have you tuned your idle airflow tables for the new setup, and have you done any tweaking to the learning tables?

If you have hp tuners you can look and see what your tps is doing.
