    3.0L fuel issue

    i just finished my 543 swap and i am running into a problem with keeping a good a/f. the a/f will stay between 14.8-15.2 at idle. when i give it gas it goes to 10.8-12.6 for like 2 seconds, then to 16.1-16.5 and once i let off the gas it goes to 18-??? and stays. wtf is happening. i have tried a million adjustments. i have a 255lph inline holley pump, 32lb injectors, vortech sfmu. i have tried fuel pressure settings from 27-50psi. all i want is the a/f to stay around 12.6-13. i run 3 or 8psi. What can i do? is there any ECU cal out there for 3.0L? Do i need to get a aftermarket piggyback or standalone?

    Are you talking under load or just revving it up?

    Have you had your oxygen sensor checked that its working properly?
    Is your af guage hooked up properly?

    If running a wideband, is is calibrated correctly? where have you put the bungs?

    I would drive it carefully first, revving it up can give false numbers.

    Did you calibrate the wideband?

    the AEM wideband said not to calibrate becuase it comes calibrated. it said to only calibrate if the signal wire length is changed.
