Swap the meter out with a good one from PMAS. While you are at it, downsize the injectors to 24's.

PMAS COOL* I WILL TRY THAT. I AM PLANNING ON A SUPER CHARGER FUNDS PERMITTING THAT'S WHY I WENT WITH 30'S. YOU THINK TO MUCH FUEL. THAT MAKES SENSE I DO GET THE OCCASIONAL GREY PUFF FROM THE REAR. I WAS HOPING TO GET BY WITH THE MSD AND 16 DEGREES OF TIMNG WITH THE BIG HEADS.

Jason, easy on the caps, they are hard on the eyes. 30's will be wrong for the supercharger setup.
Use 24's now, then when you goto the supercharger have the maf recalibrated for and get 42's.

So for now, get a 24lb maf and injectors.
Later, get 42lb maf and meter.

You send the meter back to PMAS and they recalibrate it for $100.

Those tires may not be so good, does it spin at all.
Do the 24`s like said
