Steve had to comment on your build as mines similar.
Sounds like an honest #. Yet others with similar heads/smaller cams claim as much as 100hp more makes one wonder lol.
Using an old Team G I spent a number of hours on its staying.

A few months ago I fully ported a set of Brodix IK 200 and a #2970 SV (dominator flange) for a friend's 355 SBC . He changed his mind about the carb after he got the intake then I had to relocate the carb stud for a 750 might Demon fit.

I ported the sharp turn above the ports entry some, but I figured the carb thortle plates positioned more inward and the added plenum height would help the charge make the turn.

The port exits were mismatched but I could port match them nicelly due the added head intake port size.

My friend have no complaints about low end torque, and his engine rev like a dremel :). She put 391hp to the wheels with a 240 cam and 10.3 CR. Should hit 400 without the full exaust. :D

A few intake pics:

Have somebody dyno tested this configuration of carb/intake?

Have you ever noticed how the #8 port on the #2925 is off by .250". It's so off that when you try and match port it to a Felpro 1206, about .100 of the port is off the gasket. I think it's been like that since the beginning. You'd think Edelbrock would have fixed the tooling by now.
Built a 350 today, and yes, that #8 on a #2925 is really bad. Mine was to far rearward. I just took it back off and went with a standard Victor Jr.
