stronger fuel pump, bigger injectors. may have to have ecm checked to reprogrammed, possibly.

it still does it even with the 7.4l computer that came out of the 454ss pickup, and bigger injectors and stronger fuel pump don't sound like a solution to keep the engine from being modified. anything i can do without going to aftermarket stuff?
