Did you re-use the knock sensor and ignitioon module from the 350? Did you grab its injectors as well? Did you set the timing right. You are going to have problems running that motor with the stock chip. You are going to have to burn a new one or data log and have someone do it for you.

get some 55# or 65# 350 injectors, a 350 knock sensor, 350 ESC module, and a cop car chip from www.tbichips.com, advance the timing between 0*-6*, make sure you hooked everything up, and you should be good to go. If you need the part numbers for the knock sensor and esc module i have them.

Do a search for the 350 injector part numbers. Most 350 injectors that you find on ebay, etc are more than likely 55#. The 65# injectors were only used on cop cars and are fairly rare. Im sure the 55# ones will work fine if your 350. But if you buy the chip from tbichips.com let the guy know that you are going to be using 55# injectors since the chip is set up for 65#. Then he can reprograme it for you.

I'm sure you could email the guy at www.tbichips.com and ask him to input the specs of the caprice chip (or similar) into an 8063 prom chip, even though I don't like what he's doing much anymore.
