HEY THANX ALOT MAN. THIS IS MY FIRST SETUP WITH AN EFI SYSTEM. I HAVE ALWAYS USED CARB SETUP SO I AM LEARNING AS I GO. IS THE 155 FEUL PUMP TO SMALL? TO BE HONEST IM NOT VERY HAPPY WITH THE NUMBERS. IT SOUNDS LIKE THE CAM IS THE WEAK LINK IN THE SETUP. THIS IS AN ALMOST DAILY DRIVER WITH AC SO I DONT WANT TO GO TO RADICAL. I WOULD HAVE BEEN HAPPY WITH AT LEAST 400HP AND A LITTLE MORE TORQ. MAYBE I SHOULD GET A CUSTOM CAM. YOUR OPP ARE ANY ONES OPP ABOUT THIS SETUP WOULD BE GRATEFULY HELPFUL. THANX GUYS.

I would not be dissapointed with 355, that is about 305 at the tire, and depending on the weight of the car, it will be a solid 12 second daily driver. But on the other hand it is a stroker. I would start with the cam, it is not that agressive, the B-303 would be more effective with 1.7 rockers. The AFR heads and valve springs are capable of much more cam, I would use that capability. I use a much more agressive lift grind in my 302 (carbed 89 roller motor) and if I had to I could use it as a daily driver, and it makes 340+ at the tire.
