How much compression is your car pulling? Usually when you take an oil breather off while the vehicle is running and you can see a misty steam (oil) blowing out your rings are bad. Did you do a compression test or do you just think the compression is good?
As everyone has said when the driveability problems stop your car should run tons better.
Also what gear do you have? I remember you having a 3.55. If you are not in the rpm band you need to be, then all of the parts you put on will be rendered useless.
I highly recommend going to 1.7 rockers (or a bigger cam), however you may be close on piston to valve clearance.
The B cam was designed for carbed applications, that is why it has a real narrow power band. I personally don't care for that cam. You should still be faster than what you claim. I would take it to the track and run it, judging something on the street is not even close to what happens at the track.
Also make sure you don't have any vacuum leaks, that will cause the problem you are describing.
