I have had this motor for almost a year as a daily driver now. I have for the most part drivability idle to 3200rpm with out knock and seems to run pretty good. Where my main issues are is it may break the tires loose a little off the line so it seems I may not have enough something there and also after about 3/4 throttle it drops off. My idle seems a little high usually in park around 1100-1300 and in drive with brake anywhere from 800-1000. The vehicle is a 88 chevy 1500 reg cab reg bed weighs 3960lbs without me in it. here is the motor build:

FTI 2,400 stall convertor

I have been reading post for years learning and tweaking the setup but I am getting stuck at this point. I know I will only get 5000 rpm out of the tbi which is fine.
I do not have a wideband o2 for testing from what I have been reading seems I might need t get one.
I started with Dave w. Performance AMUR bin file and have gone from there. I just changed the timing a little and have a little better low end and during normal driving but still 3/4 throttle up drops on it's face. Here is the bin files and logs. Oh yeah it is a 7747 $42. The datalog .csv would not upload so I zipped it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I hope I got all the info and files you need to take a look.
Also just to make sure this is working corretly I have a raspberry pi running android connected to a 5in touch screen running aldldroid which is where I datalog from and is also a touchscreen gauge cluster when driving.
