Default MAF Conversion

i just got the chance to do my conversion today
i read somewhere that when using bigger injectors and a aftermarket MAF meter it could cause some driveability problems
the reason for doing this conversion is because i put a ford racing create motor in and it requires a minimum of 30lb injectors
i put 36lb injectors in with a proM 80mm MAF sensor(calibrated to 36lbs) because i got a good deal on them
its running kind of rough but im going to recheck the timing and adjust accordingly, probably advance it 15deg.

anyone have any other words of wisdom for me

Pull the diagnostic codes.
This will at least tell you if you sorted through the conversion correctly.

EDIT:
What computer are you using?

Doesnt the Ford Racing crate engine, (depending on which one) Come with a Cam in it? You sure it isnt just your lope in the cam your hearing? Or is it actually wanting to not run and cut off?

But i would run the codes also. THats the sure fire way to do it and you wont be chasing grimlins forever, it will let you know what up, you can fix it and be done with it.
