Maybe SPE will chime in here. Could the PimpX computer be setup to run that cam?
If so, it might be the easiest solution... though it may be a bit beside the point if that cam isn't well suited to truck use.

After going through MAF conversion for a "performance engine" my self, Had I to do it again, I'd lean the slightest bit toward carb. Unless you are racing or building a show car, EFI is a lot more work and effort than I care to put in, especially considering tuning. It still bothers me to put a carb on something that never came with it; all the trouble and drive-ability issues of a classic carb with the aero-dynamic looks of the 90's.

The exception here would be directly swapping MAF from say a 95 truck to say a 95 F-250, as opposed to what I did, trying to make a 95 mustang harness fit a 88 truck.

I believe they are no longer here. Saw a post a few weeks ago where they stated the vendor fees were pricey and their business was down. No payment resulted. Then I believe they tried to come back as an individual which triggered the admins booting them off.

There are no cam restrictions, run as big of a cam as you want.

Also, just to be clear, I was TOLD to create a new account (by the company that runs the forum) if I wanted access to the forum after ending the vendor program. Didn't break any rules in creating a new account and only did it because I couldn't even view the forum with the old account. Sales aren't down, just the sales generated from the activity on here didn't offset the costs associated with being a vendor.

I have a 92 Flareside that i swap the 302 flat tap with a 351w roller. I pick up the Fiveology harness and pick up a HOG0 Ecu. it seems pretty straight forward when re pining but i got stuck when you re pin the old pins to the new pins on old pin 49 HEGO G (ORG) for the new pin it says (GND) ground am stuck if its a ecu ground or ground it to the body.

I believe it to be a "body" ground for the O2 sensor's heating element. Better check before you fire it up though.
