You say you have a basicly stock 350. If that 350 is an L98, that is a bad trap speed. Do you know what cam and heads you are running?
EDIT: I just saw you were running stock LG4 exhaust, you were right, you definately need full exhaust. The exhaust on the LG4 is a hugh restriction for it, imagine what it is on a 350.

no its not an l98, its a early 70s block that was rebuilt almost totally stock, i dont know the cam specs but i know its pretty close to stock, it still has all the emissions crap and the car was originally a 305 lg4 car which is very crappy, i got the 350 in and was broke so it still has the 305 manifolds and exhaust, I ordered my headers the other day and they will be in tomorrow, i got the edelbrock tes headers and y pipe, ill get them put in sunday along with my new tranny, damn its gonna be a busy day, and then this coming friday im going to the track so ill find out how big a difference they really make...
