Default Moment of Truth (first fire)

Hey guys, just got done after 5 months of sitting in the driveway due to stupid issues with install and lack of motivation (hot, sun) So I'm getting ready to fire this pile here's what is wanted to get your thoughts if safe to run it?

Stock Block
255 intank
AFR 165's
FTI cam
Vortech T-trim Aftercooled (12psi) pain in the *** kit.
42# injectors
Lightning MAF (calib)
stock ignition.

I was going to start it just pull some timing out and go straight to the tuner.

Wanted to get your .02.

Thanks All
