I found my Cranking Cylinder Pressure (CCP) problem

Yes Sir
I was really pissed when I first put it in the car with the recommended 2200 stall converter performed very poorly, could never get the tune right.
Late last year I installed a 3000 stall converter and upped the gearing to 3.55:1
and that finally woke it up. The tune almost fell in place, the car now performs well for a small displacement engine.
At 1.22 lb/ft per cube you’re doin alright. And with 224/230 @ 050 you shouldn’t need a ton of converter or gearing. Is the car heavy? That might be some of it.
