Default Can someone make me a custom bin.

I've been trying like crazy the past few days to get my laptop to read my ecm but i'm not having any luck. My car is running rich like crazy and I would atleast like to drive it. I'm wondering if anyone can make me a bin according to my specs. The engine has just been rebuilt and I was told I shouldn't need a custom chip because its nothing crazy. I'm still going to try and get my laptop hooked up to see exactly whats goin on. If anyone is interested I will gladly send them my specs. Thanks!

The fact that it is running really rich may not have anything to do with the bin. What was done to the engine?

Sorry I didn't post back sooner, but I was out of town. The engine was rebuilt. New cam, ported heads and plenum, headers, bigger injectors etc. I was told that the chip would need to be programmed because of this.

I don't know how crazy you got with the cam or if you added cubes but if you put larger injectors in it thats why you are running rich.

Well I finally got my laptop to read the ECM so i'll mess around with it. The cam isnt crazy and the engine was only bored out to a 355. I changed the injector size in my bin to 24lbs but it still runs rich.

I am also running a 355 and I ran along time on my stock injectors.
Do you have a scan tool or wide band? How do you know you are rich? You probably are but do you have a way of knowing for sure?
You might be able to run your stock injectors. What are they, 20lber's?
