Default Fast xfi tuning

I was told to come over here Here is the problem I have. I will totally list what I have from to to bottom and what I have encountered with flashes and so on..
I have a 1993 dakota that I did an engine swap in went from 5.2 to 5.9 or 318 to 360. The engine is a custom build (well for me anyhow).
1994 5.9 magnum block
At this point 1993 stock ecu had a 92-93 performance ecu but the voltage reg went bad and was charging like 18+ volts.
eagle crank (not stroked)
9.1 comp
R\T Heads 1.92 intake (the smaller ones)
1.7RR
factory 5.9 cam
M-1 intake w\52mm tb
CAI
Headers W\ true dual Exhaust
Can't for the life of me remeber the stall for the converter
Built tranny
8.25 rearend with 4.10 posi
Can't think of anything else. So if you have any questions just ask and I will answer them.

Ok, I wanted to install the fast system to get everything out of the motor I could and maybe even run e85. The GM style harness is well for the lack of better word for a GM. Sure I can get it to work with my truck but I have alot of things I want to work and not look like a rats nest under the hood. So I came across a guy that said he made splice in harness just for what I was doing so I bit at the tune of 1000 bucks for the harness and a Accel duel sync Dist. I get this thing in and it fried the performance ecu. So I pull it all out and start over. Had to get a harness from a wrecking yard to put it back together.
I am still going to do this but I need to get more parts for it like gauges, make pigtails for the tranny stuff like the lockup the VSS and crap like that. Need to figure out how to get my OD to work, the things in the dash. I am trying to learn everything I can. But if you know nothing about fuel injection then it can be a PITA!! to say the least. The wiring part, I just need to get the right GM style sensors. Then I need find timing info AF info as to what start with. I had someone give me a base tune but I didn't understand how to work with the different graphs and the more I read the more I understand. As for flashing the factory ecu. I had my girlfriend do the flashing and nothing happened..JK I called B&G and they told me that they didn't do those anymore so I was like crap, that is when I looked into FAST.. and bought the setup for the magnum motor. I have even called the Direct connect hotline and talked to them about the performance PCM but they told me 1996 and newer. I could get it to work but I would have to do some splicing and dicing on a 96 and newer harness. I am about done with this.. I am so tired of chopping my truck up to try to make things work and I am not willing to pay someone to do it for me. I don't really know what to do now.. So there it is... If anyone has any input or advice that won't cost me a boat load of money chim in and give me a shout... Thanks everyoneto post this.. In need of some help!!!
