Also, WLF did not have a full Lightning swap ( Is this correct?) - I believe Built does ....

Aw man, I'm so jealous. I would love to have that motor in my Expy.
Make sure you have the camera going on her maiden blast down the highway. Gotta love the whine of a supercharger!
Don't you know if you had used a 4.6 you would have got 100 hp more out of that set up?

If the MAF wasn't plugged in it would use failed maf tables to control the fuel. I would you check for a vacuum leak. Look closely at the PCV system o be sure all the tubes are plugged in.

well it can idle!!! I cleaned the IAC, didnt do a darn thing. I messed with my tuner, didnt do anything. I thought, what about that little screw on the tb.... well I turned it in, and it didnt do much, but it did idle higher, and it would still die, but I started it and shut it off several times, and I guess it learned it, and now it will idle. I did a little data logging, and I'm pretty sure its pig rich. I recalibrated my wideband twice, and im getting 7.7-10 at idle and driving around. And as soon as it gets in boost, it pretty much falls on its face. I emailed the logging to my tuner, and ill talk with him tomorrow.

How old are your front 02's ? You prolly know this , I was reading that thread MGD & ONELOWF posted last night - said running rich can screw them up purdy quick.
Good luck with the tuner - hope he's available to give yuh a hand right away..
