Just curious but what's your 60' time? And what transmission are you running?

The parts combo you list does not necessarily look bad. To get the most of that cam you would need to come off the line with the rpm at about 3000. I'm wondering if you have traction problems or have a poor 60' time. The 60' is really important. One tenth lower 60' equals two tenths lower ET in the 1/4 mile.

This is not a tech thread. Plus, you already have a talk thread going on this exact same issue.
