Hey Tom, if the cam is not a radical grind, then you're probably not going to rev up over 6000RPM anyway. So everything i was going to add dosent apply. You are right for getting rid of the 2 inch exhaust though. you're choking the enigne. I still say that with a mild cam and 2v heads the 2.25 pipe is the way to go, what did the shop reccomend? But then 2.5's do sound nice! lol Thats what I'm running, but then I'm flowing alot more air than you are at this point. Listen to alot of mufflers also. There is nothing better than that low rumble when you pull up to the light. Dont be so fast to trade in that Holley. Remember 2V heads dont flow at low RPM's so changing to an Edelbrok might not help it anyway.
