lack of gas?

i have a 305tbi with open element, and Hooker LTs, so basically its stock....it chokes at the top end with the hookers, could it be a lack of gas (only 2 injectors) or is it purely cuz im running open y pipe right now?

thanks

And Now Im confused, how is a 400 SBC, a L03 ?

If you have a 400 shortblock with all the L03 **** bolted onto it, thats your answer Right there.
