I didn't see whether you said it was single plane or dual plane. But the previous owner sounds like somebody who might be running single plane. I'll bet with a new cam and possibly a new intake, that you'll be ready to go.

You do bring up a good point about the intake. I didn't mention it but it is a dual plane so probably not the issue. Guess that's why I didn't mention it. It is a Holley Dominator dual plane. I think there is better options out there but that was on it and I didn't change it. Just took the 750 double pumper off and put on a 670 street avenger. I think pulling the heads is a smart place to start.
