Whats going on
I looked at your past messages to see all that you have, and noticed that you have a 306 ci engine with a cam of 224 &232 duration @.50. Thats pretty healthy for a 306! The flow #'s on your heads have great flow numbers for a street car. The only thing I see that concerns me is the size of your carb! Its huge for a 306 that shifts'only at 5500-6000 RPMS. If you can borrow a 600-650 doulble pumper carb (4150 style) you could pick up alot!!
I would not feel comfortable putting in a bigger cam. My first combo had a lot less cam, head and intake and went mid twelves with a 1.72 60 foot at 200 above sea level. You might be at the point where you have to much of something. Plus another great tool to have would be a "EGT". Help toon in you beast!
With the "EGT" you will know if your running lean or rich at the race track.
Good luck
