Default Help with my SWR/ set up

Hi
Here is what I just got, Cobra 29 LTD Classic that was bumped up a bit, a new
Palomar Elite 300 amp (ebay) , Diesel (?) noise canceling mic and a Wilsom
5000 mag mount ant.

I cant get the SWR down below 2.5. I ran a new 18' cable and a ground wire to
the frame of the truck but ever time i key up the ANT light lights up on the
radio.

My questions a

1. How can I get the SWR down?
2. Is this a good combo?
3. on my amp it has a ON/OFF , HIGH, MED, LOW and a PRE-AMP on and off.
What is with the PRE- AMP.

Ok I know I will take a beating from some of you and that is part of the game
but any help or any suggestions would be great.

Thanks
Rock
