Drumrush what I would do is do some logging, make sure it's logging when the car stalls so that the stall and what happens around it is caught in the log, then send it to vince.

Running a 3.1 is boring, LOL should of just went Turbo...to late now
i would love to go 2.8, but i really dont feel like blowing my engine

lol rich afr is not because of how big the injectors are......42's are a more stock like injector so they carry more of a stock presence though.

Be better to just cram timing down it with a 3.0.

I'm running Autolite XP iridiums,2 steps colder and have random misfires at idle only.Im thinking its the TF tune,which I'll be switching to HPT soon.My buddys turbo 2.2 was doing the same until he switched to HPT,so I'm going with that. lol.
