Default Hello Everyone!!!

I finally fulfilled a boy hood dream when on a whim I went and bought a 1988 Mustang GT with T-tops that I saw on eBayhere in southern Alberta. The guy needed money and I needed a toy, so after a 3 hour drive to get there I was driving back in my new toy with a bungee cord keeping the signal light lever forward so I could have headlights, as they were not working on the switch for some reason. The engine had 20 miles on a rebuild and had the following done to it.


The block was bored 40 over
Aluminum flat top pistons 10:1 compression
Roller rockers
Roller Lifters
Double roller timing chain
276hr roller cam
Gt40 heads
24lb injectors
Headers
Flowmaster exhaust
A/C and smog delete
High volume oil pump
Aluminum water pump
Chrome alternator
New 5 bolt conversion kit (not installed yet)
[ul][/ul]

The bad is it runs pretty rough at this point as I am told it need a MAF conversion kit and computer tune to adjust for the lumpy cam. I am not sure where to start with this car and could use any help that anyone can offer.
