Fixed the problem, heres whats up.
My coolant temp senor was bad, something must have happened to it during the intake swap. I figure it must have been reading 50-100* less than the actuall temp of the motor.
I was also running extremly lean. The stock TBI has reached its limit, the regulator is now wound out and its still a little on the lean side. Im going back to the track on friday, Im hoping to shave 4 10ths off of that 15.9. It feels like a totally different car. It actually moves.

L98 cam, 1 5/8 headers, 2 1/2 y-pipe, 4bbl edelbrock performer, holley adapter, open element K&N, flowmaster catback, MSD coil, accel wires cap & rotor, vette servos, shift kit, 2000 stall converter, TC lockup switch, all the free mods and some I left out.
15.98 @ 87mph <<what a load of horse****!
