im having problems with a 1994 chevy c1500 the mods done to the truck are vortec heads edelbrock 3702 cam headers holley 670cfm throttle body with gm injector pod with 350 injectors tbichips custom chip i have been working on the truck for a few months and it runs rich no matter what we try it fouls the plugs can anyone help

I would contact tbi chips to see what they say. You probably need an adjustable pressure regulator with that set-up though. What intake are you running? Are all sensors still in place?

I did a similar swap years ago and I remember I initially had spark plug issues. I was running the wrong ones. Are you running the plugs that are recommended for your truck or for the vortec heads? I can't remember which way I ended up having to go, but I know it was real gutless with the wrong ones in it.

I can't remember but that sounds right, but I would verify just in case. Hopefully TBI chips can get you right. I did mine before the internet had all these forums and never knew about the custom chips needless to say it never ran near at what its potential was. I am not even sure if the custom chips were even around. If I remember correctly it was in 99 or 2000.

i think i may have found part of the problem with the engine there are bubbles in the radiator and the radiator builds pressure with just a few minutes of running the engine is missing bad at idle its not running hot there is no water in the oil so i dont understand it the engine has about 150 miles on it and never ran hot
