Perhaps the best advice above is to live with the engine for a while and see how you like it. It surely has lots of torque and must give a nice kick in the pants from that many cubies.

But, i would expect that the heads/manifold combo is the biggest oppportunity for improvement, along with the street muffler.

You might consider asking the builder what he would suggest.

i wouldn't jump all over the cam thing, unless i was satisfied that the heads/manifold combo was optimized for those cubes, which isn't particularly likely.

I agree with Whatsa. It's not the cam. It may be a combination of the intake/heads/exhaust to be the limiting factor, and possibly the builder has very conservative dyno numbers as well, which makes the hp seem low.
