Trusses were manufactured elsewhere ... hard to see in the time lapse but they carried them over one by one.

350 guy here.

I've done a couple of iterations on 350 motors.

The first iteration was a very basic 69 350, #47 heads. This was the 1969 equivalent of your 1970 350. I put a Summit 2800 cam in...

Listen the Pontiac 350 has a longer stroke then any other 350 cid motor that was in GMs divisions back then, so it has superior torque available for great street driving.

When I compared the 2802 cam specs, it is more similar to a 744 cam. The HIT-284 Crane cam I pulled out was 228/235 at 050, about 500 lift. The stock retainers had mashed the aftermarket Viton...

I would think that a "Gardner stock-type exhaust" shouldn't hold you back;
Look at pure stock drags and such - I have understood that many of those people are running a Gardner exhaust.

The OP states that his motor has “strong even compression “ but yet he does not state how much PSI that is.

This is a good point, the 2802 is very similar to a 744, much closer to a 744 than an 068HL IMO, the chart below shows that as well. I’ve been looking into the 2802 as I think it’s a cam that I want...

I was scratching my head on throwing 1.65 rockers on a high lift cam;
That cam specs out at .466" & .488" lift with a 1.5 rocker;
Unless my math is wrong, that's .513" & .537" lift;
If the heads...

A late addition of 1.65 rockers?

What is the cranking compression? Was the camshaft degreed? Did you confirm that the balancer is accurate during cam install? Does your carb have a secondary lockout?

I would start out with a vacuum gauge and do basic tune up troubleshooting. Increase the timing while watching the vacuum gauge. Let us know what kind of readings you are getting.

No mention of AFR, you can be real lean or super fat and missing 40hp etc right there, I'll assume the plugs don't read black so you're not super rich.
