new combo missing a bunch of power?

convertor....nothing will make a turd out of a stout combo like the wrong or damaged convertor can.

just a guess.... but what worked before is not getting it near the powerband now

the car runs on e85 the carb was built for this combo. not saying its perfect but hopefully better than a coffee can purring gas down the intake.

Was this engine dyno tested? That would be the first thing done to eliminate what kind of power it makes.If engine is good then look at the rest of the car.
