I need help guys....

I'm swapping in the stealth ram and new cam along with 24# injectors. I finally got everything together and the thing will not run. When you turn it over it backfires out the intake and the one time we almost had it running it was still really sick. I've been messing with the timing a good bit but nothing I've tried has worked. Do you think the stock computer can't handle it.
Here is the Cam info. : dur.@ .050 I. 230/ E. 236 Lift I. .510/ E. .520 Lobe separation 113*

I'd say pull the dist out and retime it. Set the timing to the factory 6 degrees at first. Check for vacuum leaks, you should be able to get it running.

Still not running. No vacuum leaks and the timing is plenty close enough to start. Major backfiring has been ocurring through the intake and exhaust. I think the cam is off.

i got it running tonight and of course it was the last thing I thought of. I didn't adjust the valves right. By the way, the stealth ram rules!
