you should just load your stock tune and use that until you install the pulleys. the car will run fine cause your only mod is exhaust. try the stock tune and see is the CEL goes away. wait a sec, read the code with the tuner and the post the code on here to find out what its for.

When you plug into the diag port, in the menu you can select read dtc codes. Post up what dtc is being displayed so we can help.

i checked that just now.. says nothing to read or something....

i just returned it to stock took a ride beating the shit out of it, coasting.. and nothing everythings good.. so then as a test i decided to throw in the 87 perf tune and no engine light... did the same drove it like i stole it, and coast.. nothing..

but when i returned it to stock the start up was weird... but maybe thats the jlt cai cuz the idle went high then low then high real quick...

im lost right now..

Well, by their listings you can obviously see your getting 2 lean condition codes and a cam position sensor issue.

If you put your stock tune it do these codes remain? If so, go to the dealer. If not, then call Bama and see if they can correct the lean condition.

Lastly, I don't think this is a tune issue, I think the cam position reading is coming in false and causing the lean codes.

Either way, you have to find out if they remain in stock configuration, meaning none of the Bama tunes in the car.
