If you mean fuel trim is +/- 25 I'm surprised it's not logging fault codes.
The graph looks like it's adding fuel for response to excess oxygen in the exhaust (lean) then over-correcting.

Would be good to see that graph aligned with front OS sensor output to make sure engine is in closed loop control.

Usual causes as you checked
Slow switching oxygen sensor
Air leaks
Misfire
Airflow sensor

Checks that I'd add:

Check cylinder compressions.

Re-check cam timing.

Check charcoal can (EVAP) solenoid is closing fully (clamp hose, recheck AFR)

Swap coilpacks and spark plugs from a good running car

Also Bear in mind keyways could be damaged meaning physical cam/crank position is not what is indicated on timing marks (rare but does happen).

Check for Fuel pump sucking air (may need to be rechecked at different fuel levels); Put feed hose into jug partly filled with fuel , run pump, check for bubbles.

After than I'm out of ideas.

Not resolve.. same problem... AF correction swimming many, idle OK after 2200 RPM to 3000 RPM the engine trembles and vibrate.

New Timing belt, new sprocket 4 cam...

RE-Test leak intake all part, test leak exhaust.

New Fuel Pump DW300 and Aeromotive regulator + Radium Fuel Pulse Damper.

I think problem the ECU ??????? or my problem is a Cam Kelford 268/264 ???????

Any suggestion...
