could the intake be holding my low end down?
Wait; you ran 185psi with iron heads?
As far as I can recall you are only the third person here on FABO to run over 170 with iron,
Tell us more.
Current combo is with open chamber cast iron 360 heads.
Car went 12.8 @ 105.5 mph 1.84 60ft last time out with an issue at the top end which i think is electrical and carb related. Going back to a 1.5 rocker to see if it picks up the low end and ultimately the 60ft
Early valiant sedan 3400 lbs with me in the car and a full tank of gas.

Mallory Dizzy with 2 pink springs initial 18 and total 38 all in by 2000 rpm but retards 2-3 degrees as the revs pick up past 3K
1 5/8 try y's with 2.5 inch exhaust.
The top end was thrown together to get me out of a spot. Will be going back to the 302's (58cc's) an Air Gap and a Mr gasket 1121 thin head gasket which should pick me up another 0.5 to 1 point of comp.
In my view the cars too slow.....:)
