did you ever try tapping the maf electronics to see if the idle breaks up?

My chip is okay. I have to get a new one that's tuned a little better. I know a guy the can build me a custom chip. Now in my 88 LX notch-back I'm putting a carburated 347 stroker w/ trick flow heads, victor jr intake, 4:10s, T56 tranny, 5 lug w/ cobra brakes for the front and gt brakes in the rear, 10-point roll cage, comp cam, turbo kit, and 150 shot and more. I'm starting this project now hopefully I'll be done in about a year and a half. [sm=nxsmile.gif]

as soon as i start the car it will stall in the mornings i have to feather the gas or hold the rpms up until it warms up. i will try that i will get my dad to tap the electronics when i start the car . im just guessing this is normal the cold start problem bc i have tried everything
