IMO i wouldn't use that xe274 cam with stock manifolds, and definitely wouldn't use the 250@.50" with manifolds. that being said losing about .25 of a second with manifolds vs the headers does make some sense. with the "250" cam put the headers back on. you need the separation of the exhaust pulses plus the have more volume. i also i would take a very serious look at fuel delivery. dumb things can happen between the tank and carb; cracked hose, pump push rod, inadequate pump, etc. my experience with those 800 carbs has been they are more likely to be rich than lean as they come out of the box. Correct, the xe274 cam is not really set up for stock manifolds but, I wasn't unhappy with the results when I tried it. About what I would have thought. The headers will not be going back on as I'm interested in the FAST class, I've been making changes to move in that direction. The fuel delivery issues are up on the list of things to check. my quickie guess is the engine is in the process of eating the fuel pump push rod. that would account for the majority of power loss. just a first place to look guess.
