Need some advice

With a starter gear of 3.23x 2.55=8.24, yours will for sure be soft on take off. But from 2800/25mph or so,if the rest of the combo is well tuned, it should be getting it on. EDIT By well tuned,we are talking firstly, the ig timing, then the carb, and lastly the cam timing.The rest of the combo looks pretty good.
That combo,if sharp EDIT (well-tuned) will like a starter gear of around 9.5 to10: if lazy will want 11 or more. The 10:1 is a 3.09x3.23,or a 2.66x 3.55. The 11:1 is a 3.09x3.55, or a 2.66x4.10
From here it becomes an exercise of expectations.
The very first thing I would do is a compression test.
If the pressure is way up there,its gonna get expensive. If its in the basement, a simple cam swap can work wonders.
I have a similar engine-combo.
I had a 292/509Mopar cam for a while (very similar to your cam). Made a bunch of power when revved past 5500.Sounded fantastic. Scared passengers.It was too big for street.I sold it.
The next cam I swapped in was a [email protected] cam would pull an 8/1(2.66x2.94s) starter gear no problem, and smoke 275s. Now I had torque, right where I needed it. The only thing I miss about that big 292cam is the rumpity-rumpity.But this 223* cam dropped 2 lobes, so;
Currently I have a 232@050. This is a bit lazier out the gate, requiring a 10/1 minimum starter gear,So,I bought a GV and use an 11/1 starter gear which is 3.09x3.55. The GV reduces the 3.55s to 2.77,for highway cruising.I kinda miss that 223cam.Boy that 3.09Direct 4th gearset is hard to top with a GearVendor behind it.
Static compression ratio is a usefull number, no doubt, but cylinder pressure is a much better indicator.

So on to measuring the cylinder pressure.
