A stock fuel pump should be good for 13sec. 1/4s. Ronnie Sox got 13.00@111.52 with, of course, a 4-speed in a stock 6-pack Roadrunner. My junk yard 440 in a '69 Coronet with the junk yard fuel pump and Thermoquad that came with it runs 14.20@98. If you're running out of fuel, something's really wrong. Pressure means nothing. You can have thousands of PSI, but little flow. Think of those car lighter tire pumps that have a 300PSI rating. How long does it take for those to fill up a tire? You need to know the pressure under load at WOT. As for degreeing in a cam, the last cam I installed was 9deg. off. Glad I checked it.
