It was probably about 1200, I saw at idle 750 it did it a couple times to.
I wonder if something is triggering knock retard? What is your cranking timing set at?
I'd leave it at 28 at WOT, you essentially have the simplified version but in 2D table now. Switch it back to simple, and change the WOT to 28.
Then later you can switch it back to 2D and add timing at low load at idle if you want.

Do you still have idle timing control on?
Yes I do
That could be it too...
17 degrees at 400 rpm, 2 more degrees then holleys base tune.
Next thing I want to do is lean it out at cruise, I think it will help with my really low MPG. Right now it cruises low 13's, I would like to get it closer to 14 but I also wan't to do it safely and not melt this thing down.
14 is pretty safe as long as you do it only at low load (with plenty of vacuum)
I would also advance the timing at cruise at low load. Try 40 or so at cruising RPM and load and see how it likes it.

I will have to try and get it this weekend, leaving for a few days but want to remember this.
A normal drive data log will need to be done. I have like 6 different drives.
Well big things happening to the truck, I landed on some money and using pieces of this truck for my C10 I'm flipping. Might as well upgrade the 82 and correct some of the things I didn't like 7 years ago when it was put together. It worked, but always had it in the back of my mind that it wasn't the best of my ability.
Parts coming
ORD rear leafs with the extreme shackle and tension hanger
Ford Raptor 3.0 internal bypass shocks.
Need to decide on
New fuel system, external adjustable fuel pressure regulator and fuel lines.
air bumps
limit straps
Once all this comes I will road trip the truck 350 miles to my friends house where fabrication will began.
Rear shock mounts/ crossmember
New trans cross member to replace the factory one.
Front tube added from the pan hard bar to the coil over hoop.
Front 6 inch led light bar brackets to go into the holes on the 82 front bumper.
Possibly front and rear axle truss
Test and tune before Moab BB22, ready set go!

What length springs did you order?
56's Didn't want to move the gas tank and come up with a filler. I like the function of the door. If I need more I can always put another tank on the passenger side.
Getting ready to drop the tank and replace the fuel pump, what is the prefered hose to use from the sender to the intank pump?
I've always had the little piece that comes with the pump. Has to be the good submersible stuff.
Because of the world we live in I wasn't able to get the pump with the install kit. I would like to replace the line with something new rather then reuse the old one that has been in it for 7 years
hey is the parking lot done, why you messin' with old trucks when the parking lot is not ?
Lunch break and I was on a zoom owners meeting.hey is the parking lot done, why you messin' with old trucks when the parking lot is not ?
You need submersible fuel hose, I can get it but holley is out.
I have bought it at O-reilly before. Just make sure it is submersible and EFI pressure rating.
