Get guys this one stumps me. My car has no low end power. I'm using a cam that I'm familiar with so I'm thinking the problem is in the car. Everything moves free on the jackstands but when you let the car down it takes two people to push it. What is going on. My motor is crisp and I'm spinning good rpm's but they aren't low end rpms which is what I need and have had with this set up. Please leave suggestions.

Sorry.spelling errors. Its a cam I'm familiar with and I'm turning good rpms. It just takes a half straight away to get moving then when you let off the gas its like I have an engine brake

Hey man!!! There are so many variables to your delema... I am not sure what your combination is ie. heads, carb, cubes, carb, but usualy there is an issue with the timing of the camshaft that drags the low end torque high in the rpm range... Are you running an adjustable timing chain setup and if so did you line the marks up advanced 4 centered or retarded 4... The reason your car will roll hard is probably exsesive toe out which makes it hard to push by hand!!!
