wish me luck!! the install beings!!
wish me luck!! the install begins!! Well the stock heads, cam, lifters and lifter trays are all off...today the reassembly begins 
After I drain the oil, drop the pan and change the timing chain, its all up hill....I HOPE!! New injectors are also going in this time around....lets hope i can get her back on her "feet" 
wish me luck. Hope to be done with the install and partial tuning by sunday early afternoon.

its bucking hard, when i shift its rough as hell and the tune is way off! Gonna see what I can do about that today. Thanks agin guys! 
Congrats on the finished work. Scale the the injector ifr table up to compensate for the bigger size. Play with it till you get a good -2 Ltrim while cruising. If you tune for wot on the dyno try to tune it a little rich to compensate for the lack of load. Glad to hear it's finally back up and running. Now rev it up and have some fun.
You need to keep scaling the ifr till the ltrims come into the -2 range. Just using an equation to compensate is not adequate. Rescale the table down for more fuel or the car will never run consistent. I just tuned for a svo 30 swap for my buddies car a couple days ago. Had to richen up the ifr 10% or so richer than what the adjustment ratio gave me of 1.36%. Had to adjust wot throttle tuning as well to bring it back in line. I have tuned lots of cars so I know what I'm talking about.
Well then your talking to the wrong people. If you drive around at +18 ltrim you only have 7% more correction factor before the computer is maxed out. Not only that but if you have postive ltrims when going into wot throttle it is going to add in that extra correction factor on top of the pe table. This would give very inconsistent wot results.

Don't screw with the IFRs. That is "OLD" world sledgehammer tuning. HPTuner and EFILive have made us smarter now....
You have HPTuner and there are several write-ups here and on the HPTuner forum for SD tuning to get your VE table accurate. After that (if you want) you can go back to the MAF and calibrate it, this is what I did...
