Default Excess Fuel on passeger side of engine

Recently I had my mustang stroked to a 5.1 and did the usual stuff of all forged internals so on and so forth. During the build, I went with some AFM blower cams and trickflow stage 2 heads. The car has only been started and idled since the new setup was installed and with all things considered, the car ran halfway decent minus needing a new tune. The car is at the dyno shop to be tuned and they can barely keep the car running. I had the CPU flashed at the dealer and new custom tune for the car was installed. Now the car is running extremely rich on the passenger side bank and is actually dumping raw fuel into the exhaust. Need some advice on what this could be. Thanks in advance.

FP reg? stuck injectors? Exhaust leak before the front 02? Could be quite the combo of things. With a setup like yours nobody can tell you anything without first knowing the entire mod list then actually seeing the car.

i personally didn't degree the cams. i am hoping that the cams were degreed by the person who built my engine and installed the cams.

Have you logged or observed the short term fuel trims?

Doing so will tell you if the PCM is sensing the rich condition--if it is then the bank 1 STFT will be very negative, -30% or better. If the PCM is not sensing the rich mix look at the O2 sensor on the passenger side.

Swap the injectors bank-to-bank and see if the problem moves with them--it could be one or more bad injector?

I haven't had a chance to do any of this. I will run it by the shop who has my car and see if they will do this. The shop thinks that the passenger side cam isn't timed properly, hence the raw fuel. Would there be any other symptoms if it was the cams?

So the car hasn't seen any WOT? Whats the duty cycle set for the injectors?
You can do a fuel system leak down test too to see if an injector is stuck open.
