68504, Some q's

in the mornings, when its cold, my car acts really funny, sluggish , revs up weird, jiggles and shakes weird, once it gets up to normal temperature its completely fine.
I figured because of the mods, it doesn’t do well when the engine is cold.
Is this normal to happen?

Another question….even when its warm out, sometimes, only sometimes it starts really really low RPM, then I gata give it a little gas to get it up and started. Then some times it just starts fine….Im have some electrical problems where the battery cable its making a good connection, so I have to go out and wiggle it and then it starts…I was thinking maybe im not getting enough power from the battery, then once the alternator starts going that’s when it gets up to normal RPM..The idle will always be weird because of the cam shafts but the thing is it will start up pretty normal sometimes. Or I was thinking too much fuel from the 310 injectors and its flooding it when it starts up…???

Would a SAFC 2 help out these problems, can a safc tune your idle? Help it idle keep it from going super low then shooting back up again?

What do you guys think?

Oh also from about 2000-3200 i can hear my lifters just a little bit going (ticking), i herd this is normal...is it?
