Im with what every one has told you so far. Listen to these guys and be open minded to what they have to say. Just because you spent money on heads doesnt mean its going to fix your combo, if it is not set up correctly. I for one am with the people that said you have to low of a stall converter.
Here is my set up for a reference.
LA360
Stock Magnum heads
XE268H cam
Air gap
750 carb
TTI's to 2.5" to 2.25" exhaust. Soon to be changed to 2.5" all the way
18* initial 34 total
9.5 SCR
14Hg.
My engine put down 380 on the dyno.
Now in the car Im running a 2800 stall converter and 3:23 gears. I can light the tires up for a block or more. I've even been playing around with a 600 cfm Eddy carb and I can still light the tires up for a block or more. Did I loose some horsepower, Im sure I did, but how often am I going to be driving in the 5200rpm range?
