rochester 4bbl when you open it up or drive steady, it makes this sound poof poof and bogs a little, i dont recall this doing it before i installed headers, timing is right, i just replaced a faulty TPS no check engine light, it has ***** but it goes poof poof, using the 4bbl or just the 2bbl

Exhaust leaks can drive the ECM nuts, expecially it they're on the driver's side header where the O2 sensor is.

Burnt plug wires (leaning against the header) can also cause problems like this.

Is the EGR and other emissions stuff hooked up correctly? Getting vacuum lines messed up can cause drivability problems, too.
