I added 5% fuel to idle areas of VE table. See attached Scan. I start it a few times and then the third time i try and keep a steady rpm at like 2600rpms. Can someone see if they see anything that stands out in the scan that could be causing this? Thanks

So I wanted to see if everything was connected in the back of the intake manifold so I took off the manifold. I looked in the intake ports of my heads and one of them was full of gasoline. I took that valve cover off and the 2 rockers for that port were loose. One was completely off the pushrod. So either i screwed up and forgot to tighten these 2 all the way or something happened that made them come loose. There is no damage to the rockers or the pushrods. The springs look good too.

Could this have caused my stalling issue?

I removed that head and the pistons are all good. Valves look good. I may have just not torques those two down all the way. I’m gonna get new bolts for the rockets just to be sure.

I'd say get it back together and take it to a tuner... or since you have hptuners, talk to your tuner and have him look the tune over and make you a base file for the new setup and load that onto the car to get it running good enough to drive to him

Yeah I am going to have him adjust the tube for the new injectors then get it over there ASAP.

So im guessing that should be the reason why the car was stalling right?

Figured it out. It was the tune. I added the new injector data and it runs perfect. Thanks everyone especially RedRider for the injector data suggestion.
