Default Well, here are a few things
Remember you will lose 100 HP through the restrictive side exhaust. Did you have the aire cleaner on it when you dynoed it?
THe cam is too mild for the motor you built. My 427 (stock stroke) has 242and 242@ 50 with 590 lift . Put out 493HP and 539 ft. pounds of torque at 6200 rpms on the engine dyno. My valves in the edlebrocks are 2.19 and 1.75. and the heads are ported with bowl work.
