what to do?

I have a 87 firebird. 6 month ago I had a engine swap done with a early 70 350. I believe it was out of a 3500. It had a 650 holly, shoty headers going thru a high flow cat, then a flowmaster cat back. Edlebrook manifold and a cam with a .50 lift and accell plugs, wires and distributor. It rolls but I fell something is holding it back. I think it may be heads. It is about as fast as my 2002 but not faster, which would put it at about 350hp.
