The 2000 stall is not near enough to leave some one at the light.
The comp 280H cam is not happy with a stock torque converter.
You'll need a 10" 3500stall and 4.56 gears to get that truck/tank moving quickly. More, if you run a tall tire.

i would go to a roller cam, 1.6 rocker arms

268xfi-hr13 will work good with a 2k converter.


if you go up to a 2500 stall, go to xr270hr with 1.6 rockers...


should put you close to 400hp

I agree w/ fbird, gotta get more stall.

If you MUST use that stall converter; then I'd suggest a Comp cam 12-242-2 which is the XE268H .470/.480 1600-5800 RPM and will work well with a stock stall converter.

Your rear gearing is very important for performance. Consider a minimum of 3.50-1 on up to 4.10-1 for the street. 3.7-1 is overall best choice for many street applications.

Use the Edelbrock Performer RPM intake that you have.

I like a Holley carb over the Edelbrock for performance. The Edelbrock is an excellent carb though and since you have it then use it.

I'd use the stock GM HEI over the Accel for street use. Just my personal preference.

If you want torque from low down use one of these , I have one in my 355 pushing 1.6: 1 roller rockers.
It was first in my 305 and when I swapped shortblocks I thought why not try it in the 355 and see what happens.
Even though it´s meant for computer controlled vehicles it works well at the traffic lights.
