Re: engine during in gear
What are the @50 duration numbers on the cam?
Most likely you will have to raise the idle speed to allow for the cam ( and possibly change the stall as mentioned )
If you are making the Hp you claim from a 355 then no way is it gonna idle like stock
What induction do you have?

Re: engine during in gear
Usually that's a matter of tuning; idle speed & mixture, having enough ignition timing, etc.
What cam is it? (part # or grind # ONLY please)
What kind of carb? How's it set up? What's the timing curve?
THe stock converter probably isn't helping, but it should idle, regardless. Usually that just makes a car have no "leave".
