370/MP122 Build

Been out for a while but here's an update:
Slowhawk at DezRacing is doing the tuning and we seem to be a little lite on power. Currently 415/425 @ 8lbs and 2.9 pulley...it was running perfectly with no issues, but I elected to keep it there and put an underdrive pulley on it and get boost jacked up closer to 12lbs, hook the meth up (and into the washer reservoir), and see if we can't wake this pig up!!!
The truck is fighting us every step of the way tho! Pulleys out of stock everywhere, came without spacers, 8" bolt in 6" box 
, no meth hose available...u get the picture! 
Power prob cud be the heads (any suggestions welcome) too mild cam, or 4L80 (in fact it might be worth opening that thing back up to see whats ticking, but it seems to work fine) but who the hell knows and after this long I just want it back (and Slowhawk wants an end to the transferred frustration!). It shud be good to go next week and I'll put miles on it for a bunch of months 
. In the meantime I'm gonna do more research on heads/cam packages I guess!
Please - everyone chime in as I want suggestions. R/

I responded to a post Slowhawk made on the Corvette forum regarding your truck but never heard back from him either. Whatever I can do to help

In any event if you need the correct info just let me know, it's posted on here I responded to a post Slowhawk made on the Corvette forum regarding your truck but never heard back from him either.
