Increase Fuel Mixture On 82 CROSSFIRE

I have a 82 Crossfire and when I punch the gas it has a little stall, ive got new plugs, supercoil, headers, flowmaster, etc.. so I am concluding maybe it just needs a little more gas, so the crossfire is a little confusing to look at, anyone please give me detailed info on how to increase it a little, or how to get any more performance gains for not much money?? Anything would be great, let me know.. THANKS!!!

tehe. my advice? junk it, go pick up a carb + intake for 300. yea, its a chunk of change, but you'll be much happier off. and you'll be tossin more fuel in than w/the crossfire. i had an 83 with it, i junked it soon as i got home. unless your restoring, its a bad idea and long, bumpy road to having it in good, performance, working order. they were the band-aid for chevy btw the carb and tpi/tbi. they were notorious for vacuum leaks and poor sealing. there are very few cars on the road today with them.
