No Low end Power

I made the switch from TPI to carbs and seems like I lost all my low end power. I cant even peel rubber. Is my fuel pressure too high 7#. My timing is at 11 degrees advanced. Running a 350 bored .030, edelbrock intake, holley double pumper 650, S/R torquer heads decked, and MSD distributor and digital 6+ box.

You might back the timing off a bit. My 600cfi edelbrock likes 6psi. You will lose some bottom end with the carb, but not that much. There must be something else going on here...
