Problem is it runs out of steam at the top of the first gear.

Running an Edelbrock Super Victor with a Carter AFB 585 cfm, fresh Product Engineering 9500 Fuel Pump and 4 port regulator.

What do you guys think?
Everything seems ok. 1-2 shift sooner.

Don't go to 4.56 and 2.45 low gear. It won't leave starting line at all.
