    Fix this supercharged 347 combo (made no power)

    Your problem is the choice of Torque convertor. With that cam and intake you will need at least a 3500 stall and a set of 4:10 gears. Also 10:1 is way off it should be around 12.5 to 1. The next thing I would do is contact the folks at Superchips and have a custome chip burned for it. Also...
