Default Re: poor dyno numbers from 408 :(

Took the car back, found the paper work....with all the stuff to put the advanced timing back in it.......oh well. So here is what this bad boy contains:

First- a Chuck Nuytten Carb- 750 Holley double pumper, with a 72 Primary Jet, 80 Secondary Jet, 6.5 Priamry power valve and no scondary power valve. The nozzles are 35 and the following is special features done to this carb:
Blueprint
Milled air horn
Venturi work
Booster work
Air flow modified base plate
Internal circuitry modifications
Calibrated for gasoline

The engine is a 72 351w block, ARP Main and head studs, SVO Girdle. BRC racing pistons (9.5.1), Eagle H-beam Rods, and Edlebrock RPM heads with Felpro Wirelock gaskets.
The cam is Comp Cams http://www.compcams.com/Technical/Se...umber=35-250-4 I am attaching this in the paper work, may help those of you who are more up on ur cam specs then me. I am reading it to be that they degreed the Cam in.

The car breaths thru a set of shorties and 2.5 exhaust with an X pipe. No cats on the exhaust and a pair of flowmasters.

Andy669, it also has Comp roller rockers and I think the springs that came on the edelbrock heads. The engine is not falling flat on its face like it would if the valves floated, nor can I hear that horrific sound when the valves float. The engine has lots of brute force down low, but then just kinda falls off as it revs. Unlike how I would expect it to just keep coming in and rev hard.
Any details I left out?
