Cam may not be the only problem but it sure is a problem. Very small cam!

Also, what was the compression supposed to be? FE's like compression, although they can make good power without it. But if you are running 9 to 9.5, don't just make the cam change. You will have to increase compression as well.

Timing is way low, too, it sounds like.

Just sounds like a bunch of parts thrown at a block in an effort to make some nice streetable power. What you got was none of that.

Run 10:1 w/ aluminum heads, pump gas OK. .600" lift and 250 degres duration @.050" lift. Set total timing to 34 degrees (give or take), put it all back together, and you should add 75-85 horsepower. Have Keith do your heads and you will be putting down well over 400 at the rear wheels.
