Yes, I was working with hemifever and he is the one who told me I had a fuel sync issue. I sent him some data prior to me having a zero. I'm going to get some more stc data today.
I guess I asked this question prematurely, as I had a 15 hour day.

I moved my distributor -8 degrees since the tune, and I think I had told him it was originally -12 prior to me getting it to zero.

So essentially he would have tried to adjust + a bunch. Would that lead to "lean"?

It might..... But, I can't be sure. The injector may spray at the wrong time, but, that gas still has to go somewhere.....

Do you have the coil-in-cap type distributor?

I'll have to check. I bought the above a few years ago along with some Taylor ThunderVolt 8.2mm Spark Plug Wire Sets 84276. The wires are on, but it is possible the distributor did not get installed.

well, i know i bought one, but looking at it, it looks different than the summit photo. My mechanic at the time probably gave it back telling me he couldnt get it to work.

That looks like the stock distributor to me.

Still working on this. I did replace my injectors a couple of years ago. Iput the same ones as here: http://www.ebay.com/itm/5-Yr-Warrant...t/142299431077
My fuel pressure is a solid 50, even while driving. Should this be increased due to the injectors? And if I buy a stronger pump, how do I modify the fuel pressure regulator?

Pressure regulator is back on the tank, and isn't easily modified..... The O2 Sensor *should* compensate.....

Have you been able to set sync with the scanner?
